Can you only shoot from a few sweet spots on the field or are your accurate from many positions. I can only imagine being accurate from 4 places considering that you are using two sets of pneumatics for shooting and aiming.

Hmm... Sounds useful! You could probably do all kinds of fun shots with a mechanism like that.

842, has the early lead for my favorite robot of the year and people thought this year was going to be boring when it came to robot design.

At some point please publish all your code and pneumatics stuff, I want to learn all about it.

Duel in the Desert is the Saturday before bag day, and I want to see the Falcon's robot doing everything!

I think that's provided there is no lag in the wifi this year. :)
