Loading a robot with another robot!
 

This started as a crazy idea between my team, 668 and team 2643: Dark Matter at a demo we did for the Boy Scouts together.

We got it to eventually work, and it turned out looking pretty cool. Enjoy!

Credit goes to Team 2643 for filming and making the video,
We'd also like to thank team 1351 for being at the event with us as well.

Gatorzillas did this at the Dallas Regional for a neat 6 disk auto.

That's really cool! Didn't know about that one.
Seeing it done on the actual field is awesome.

I apologize in advance for linking a Lunacy-related video. :cool:

We managed to do something similar, although not planned nearly so far in advance. :p
On the Newton field, for qual match #122, we added a 60" blocker that morning to our alliance member 3171 which included a mechanism that dropped their autonomous frisbees into our hopper. Video here. We were the blue alliance, and you can see them load us at around 0:12. It was only a bit of bad luck that it didn't quite work out as expected, because it had worked multiple times in testing.

It's pretty cool to know that the A-Bomb is alive and well and works in this game. Though the way you guys did it was actually really awesome. :)
