The kicker has been modified to work better, this is our only working video. The idea has stayed the same though.

Robot looks great.

Are you using something threaded on the end of cylinder rods to stop the kicker from moving too far?

No, it's stoped by the spring. When it's fully compressed the springs act as a stopper also.

I'm not sure what they are planning on playing, but at least at the scrimmage on Sunday they seemed very effective in the front zone. I believe I saw them score 3 or 4 in one match. I think that in the right situation 2077 can excel.
