Thunderbird
RAPID REACT featured a transportation-themed challenge where two alliances competed to process "Cargo" (oversized inflatable tennis balls) into a central, two-tiered Hub. Robots earned points by launching Cargo into the Lower Hub or the more challenging Upper Hub, with scoring values doubled during the initial 15-second autonomous period. The game emphasized high-speed cycling and accuracy, as alliances worked toward a "Cargo Bonus" ranking point by meeting specific scoring thresholds. As the match concluded, robots transitioned to their respective "Hangars" to engage in a multi-level climb on monkey bars, with the highest "Traversal Rung" offering 15 points.
