Impressive! Even though two ball autos are (likely) going to be more popular at IRI, it is still quite the challenge! Look forward to (hopefully) seeing it performed on the field!

That's cutting it close on the timing, but if it works...
Great job from 179 again! Any plans to refine it more before IRI?

Awesome robot as always. Have to ask, has your turret always had the ability to shoot backwards like that, or did you remount it so that the direction the turret is facing now is forward and the intake is on the rear? Great job with the two ball auto, and see you in Indy!

Edit: Also, does this mean you guys can dunk now?

Before, during, after, The refining never stops.

It's always been able to do it, but we limit ourself in software to ~180 deg. due to cable management and have to re-tension the bundle between changing sides. We rotated it before Championship for the cycle efficiency and the 2 ball possibilities. The dunk is still theoretical at the moment but we're looking at it....
