WHAT are some of the LESS obvious _advantages_ to being Low-Bar Challenged in FIRST Stronghold?

Re: Low-Bar Challenged Robots - Support Group

We are a low bar (and discovered this was also most defenses :( ) challenged robot, and we scored 4 high goals in a qualifying match, and I can't remember how many we scored in our second quarterfinal match, 4 or 5, but we still got picked 8th overall!

Just an update for the low bar challenged group. How have you been doing so far?

2502 won northern lights. We did 7 or 8 cycles during our first quarter finals match, and did 6 for every other elimination match.

Team 217 chiming in to join this group! We have been having some great success with a tall bot!

We were 2nd overall pick at the Buckeye Regional (but unfortunately our RoboRio became extremely damaged during our second quarterfinal match). We did manage to score (I believe) 7 high goals in one match! We also scored 70 points individually in another!

Go #TeamTall!

What are the odds that 1114, 254 or similar will be joining your support group? While it may be slim, I think there is a chance.

Played with 254, trust me they have no trouble with it, nore did 1678 that giant bot flattens quite well

Re: Low-Bar Challenged Robots - Support Group

We played our first event in St Joe and the low bar thing wasn't an issue. 95% of the robots were low bar. But we were a tall robot that was blind, none of our cameras worked until day 2. We got one working for 1/2 of a match, but then the CF broke the lens out of our camera.

The 2nd day though... both cameras working, so we could shoot finally. We made 7 shots in 1 matches and two of the highest scores during quals were from us and our alliance partners.

We only missed 2 shots on that 2nd day. One went straight through from one side to the other and the other one was just rushed. One of the shots even had a robot slam into us as we were shooting breaking one of our arms off (causing us a foul) but we made the shot. :)

Being tall is nice. We have our climb done except for some minor testing and look forward to unleashing the "Swiss Army Beast" at Lansing. :)
