A little dub step for your Monday morning.
 

Greetings,

It pains me to share this, but this is what a student of ours came up with. It's intended to be humorous. I think it hurts the ears ;-) When the driver saw we could make the robot "dance," I couldn't stop them.

The last ten seconds is the most educational:

Enjoy!

PS: Mashed Potatoes?

this just made my day.

For those of you who don't get the mashed potatoes, this might help. And yes, someone really went around and did this.

Are we going to be seeing triple? I timed it on the video using a super advanced online stopwatch and it would be close. I imagine you at least tried it?

ohhh, I don't know :D It looks promising don't it? You are right, the timing will be tight.

From the armchair speculator here I'm guessing you could get the first ball off when the robot enabled, but not at the 100% that is far more desirable than the chance of getting the extra points (at least in my opinion, which is why we almsot never attempted in Alamo).

See you guys Wednesday or Thursday or something. Remember to leave your food and drinks at home!

To answer your question, you will not see 3 ball done at our first tournament, but maybe at later events. We wanted to make sure we spent as much time driving so our first year drivers were ready and all the glitches were worked out for VA. We are looking at installing a more effective compressor to improve the reload time which should help with auto.
