A.N.D.Y. was Red Alert's robot for the 2015 FRC season, *Recycle Rush*. This unique game challenged robots to stack totes on scoring platforms, cap the stacks with recycling containers, and properly dispose of pool noodles ("litter").
10+
11+
Recycle Rush was distinctive as a co-operative game — there were no direct interactions between opposing alliances, with a step dividing the field. This allowed teams to focus purely on their stacking and scoring strategies.

Knight Fury was Red Alert's robot for the 2016 FRC season, *FIRST Stronghold*. In this medieval-themed game, alliances worked to breach their opponents' outer defenses, score boulders in the opposing tower, and eventually capture the tower.
10+

The game featured an array of unique defenses that robots needed to cross, requiring versatile drivetrains and creative mechanisms. Knight Fury was built to tackle these challenges head-on.

Black Widow was Red Alert's entry for the 2017 FRC season, *FIRST Steamworks*. Set in a steampunk universe, robots worked together to generate steam pressure by delivering fuel (wiffle balls) and gears, then climbing a rope to board an airship at the end of the match.
10+

Black Widow was designed with a focus on reliable gear delivery and consistent climbing, key strategies for success in the 2017 game.

Otariinae returned for the 2020 season — *FIRST Infinite Recharge*. In this game, robots collected and launched Power Cells (yellow foam balls) into goals while navigating a color-spinning control panel and climbing at the end of the match.
10+

The 2020 season was unfortunately cut short due to the COVID-19 pandemic, but the team was able to compete at early events before the worldwide shutdown.
12+

The robot shared its name with the 2018 version, reflecting the team's design lineage and continuous improvement philosophy.
