I feel a lot of other teams will also realize that the tubes are too big.. So don't feel like you'll be the only team to expirence this..

Yeah, I'm just glad our team was able to create a real quick solution. It actually grips the tube better now then it ever did before!

How often does your autonomous actually work? It looks like a great rookie robot. :)

I've been following this team all year. Congrats on having a great robot! I was watching your videos of your matches and I have one suggestion: get better signals for the human player. it seems like you have three hand signals: come closer, close the gripper and you are good to go. The last two seem very similar and the driver seemed a bit confused on what to do. If you can improve your load time you could get another tube on those high pegs. Best of luck!

Now that our team can remember to put in a new battery instead of a dead one (whoops)...every time :)

Good to hear! I will make sure I direct the members of my team to this post, they will be delighted to hear!

You are correct, we have that and a arm up and arm down. We are improving a lot with each match. In the last two matches we came seconds from scoring a full logo on the top.

Hopefully we can pull one off in the last 4 seeding matches that we have tomorrow :)

You have two amazing drivers, you must be sad to lose them next year (I went to a robotics course at TCNJ with them 2 summers ago)

No worries: We've worked out a deal so they'll fail gym class and have to repeat 12th grade :yikes:

These guys were across from our pits and we talked a bit over the weekend. Rarely do we see a rookie as promising as these guys. Expect to see lots more from them

Actually we have seen a few years back - they won this weekend
