Cheval auto club!
 

Calling all members of the cheval auto club!! This must have been done in an official match (no practice fields, or at homes)!

Team 587 is a member, having crossed in auto during the Campbell university event last weekend during quarter finals.

Re: Cheval auto club!
 

3824 and 2481 were on the winning alliance at Smoky. Both did it multiple times. First video has 2481 doing cheval and 3824 doing portcullis in auto for 50 pt auto (3rd team crossed)

In this case 3824 did cheval and 2481 did rock wall

Quals 78 at the finger lakes regional during auto 1126 was able to successfully cross the chival spit a ball out then cross back over the chival.

As for the rest of our matches at Pittsburgh and FLR we were able to consistently cross the chival during auto.

Team 238 proudly able to say we have been able to do it and low goal score at one point. Here's crossing Cheval at SF 2 at Boston.

We did it every possible match at FIM St. Joseph... It's that or the Portcullis :D

Re: Cheval auto club!
 

1038 is in the club. Only video I could find.

We did it several times. We also did the Portcullis in Auto in a match.

Re: Cheval auto club!
 

I was just about to post a video of you guys, beat me to it:)

Re: Cheval auto club!
 

2706 can't claim official membership because we never successfully did it in a match, but we did have an auto mode for it in North Bay that worked in a practice field. When we tried it on the real match, the distance was just slightly too short and the robot spent all of auto pushing against the cheval trying to reach the predetermined location where it would "drop and fly". At least we got the reach points...

Re: Cheval auto club!
 

3260 is happy to be apart of this club! We got this autonomous routine working along with a portcullis auto at the Queen City Regional. By the end of auto we use on board vision processing to line up with the goal.

Re: Cheval auto club!
 

Team 694 is a very special member of the cheval auto club, having joined by using an untested auto during semifinals at our first regional.

We had been planning on running our rockwall auto for semifinals but our encoders got damaged, causing our robot to flip on the rockwall

We had a cheval auto that we had tested on our wooden practice field, and we couldn't risk flipping again, so we decided to just run it, figuring that the encoder issue would, at worst, cause us to only get a reach in auto.

It was... dramatic, to say the least.

After this match, the opposing alliance was forced to pick portcullis against us, even though we had an alliance partner with a passive portcullis mechanism.

Re: Cheval auto club!
 

3310 and 148 both have CDF auton

Re: Cheval auto club!
 

Same for 3844.

Re: Cheval auto club!
 

4301 did it in quals 48 at Hub City and (I forgot which elims match).

Re: Cheval auto club!
 

4488 has been part of the cheval club since week 2.

Re: Cheval auto club!
 

2959 is a member. We did it many times at LSSU (the last time I counted, we did it 6 times and we were only on our 7th match of quals), as well as many times at Lansing the week before.

(The Sally Port is in the way, but you can still pretty clearly tell we did it!)

Re: Cheval auto club!
 

Team 503 did it several times at Lake Superior State University, this being one of them: https://youtu.be/bR5OFkHXoYk?t=2m27s

Re: Cheval auto club!
 

One of the best I've seen, TBH. It just worked.

Re: Cheval auto club!
 

3620 at MISJO. We upgraded to 20 point CDF auton later, and used that at MIKEN. No videos posted (yet) for that event.

Re: Cheval auto club!
 

1197 will see you, and raise you a FINALS Match 2 untested cheval auto. (2nd event, and about the first time the team didn't run their Sally Port auto.)

Re: Cheval auto club!
 

FRC Team 1987 BroncoBots have a Chival Auto. We are still fine tuning the shot, but we are so close.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YQFurhm5K80

Every time we cross the Chival it is automated.

Re: Cheval auto club!
 

Team 4256, the Cyborg Cats, are a new member after last week's Queen City regional. We achieved the 20 point Cheval auto two-three times during qualification matches, and we worked on it all through the playoffs. We finally did it when it counted, as our alliance scored 50 during auto and won the event! It was pretty awesome, but unfortunately there is no video for Queen City available as of now.

Re: Cheval auto club!
 

Re: Cheval auto club!
 

Team 4908 did it a few times at the Boston District Event. Here is one clip from QF2-2.

Re: Cheval auto club!
 

1519 is a High Goal Scoring member of the CDF auto club.

We used our high goal shooting autonomous routines over the CDF, Portcullis, Rock Wall, Rough Terrain, and Ramparts in competition, as shown in this montage from UNH. We haven't yet completed auto in competition over the Moat or under the Low Bar, but we are capable of both. Category C defenses are a no-go. :-)

Re: Cheval auto club!
 

225 is in this club (with a high goal)

Re: Cheval auto club!
 

5813 is a member of this club.:) We have successfully performed this auto mode in a number of matches at both WPI and UNH. :D

Re: Cheval auto club!
 

Today at SVR we completed the cheval in auto!

Here is a video of the practice field at Sacramento:

1640 joined this club at the MAR District Seneca Event.

Re: Cheval auto club!
 

Code Red Robotics, 2771, did a Cheval auto with high goal shot at the Ann Arbor District this weekend. It had never been tested on a real field, so we were pretty excited to see it cross AND make the shot. :)
Here's the video shot by our team photographer.

Re: Cheval auto club!
 

3770 consistently went through the cheval de frise and portcullis on auton.

Re: Cheval auto club!
 

Team 4290 has done cheval auto pretty consistently:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lyof...Osjf1u&index=2

You can see it up close!

Re: Cheval auto club!
 

Team 3042 crossed the Cheval in autonomous during semifinal 1 match 2 at North Star.

Re: Cheval auto club!
 

3275 did it multiple times at Northstar in Minneapolis and portcullis Auto

Re: Cheval auto club!
 

5332 Toaster Tech successfully did a cheval cross auto twice during PCH District Kennesaw Event.

Re: Cheval auto club!
 

Your autonomous modes are a thing of beauty... and an inspiration to us all. We are working on expanding our options a bit, hoping to come close to your flexibility.

Re: Cheval auto club!
 

OK 2046 has done their CDF + High goal auto numerous times now, but this one from last weekend was just plain fun to watch.

CDF + High Goal with a robot directly in the way, they plowed right under/through them and still made the shot.

Re: Cheval auto club!
 

3322 ran our cheval auton all throughout playoffs at Ann Arbor Skyline. I love watching it run. Here's a video.

Re: Cheval auto club!
 

I'm curious, what method are y'all using for going up to the cheval? It looks like most bots are using encoders for driving the distance.

Re: Cheval auto club!
 

We use a proximity sensor on the tip of our manipulator to detect the CDF edge.

Re: Cheval auto club!
 

And it always works. Y'all were very impressive at GKC and SMR this year. As always.

Re: Cheval auto club!
 

5980 just recently tried this during our first octofinals match at the Michigan State Championship. Worked first time no sweat! This was the first time we had ever tried this on a real field, during a match of any sort. We ended up using this auto for the next four matches, and we were successful every time. Link to the video

Re: Cheval auto club!
 

166 joined the Cheval Auto Club this weekend at the New England District Championship. We're ready to show it off at the World Championship in St. Louis! You can see it on display here.

Re: Cheval auto club!
 

Team 3620 has a CDF auto high goal shot from any of the defense positions on the field. Here is it working from position 2.

Re: Cheval auto club!
 

Rookie team 5980 is proudly a member of the Cheval auto club. We preformed multiple crosses successfully at the Michigan State Championship.

Re: Cheval auto club!
 

Team 1701 is a member as of MSC

Re: Cheval auto club!
 

2197: Multiple cheval auto crosses at Indiana District Championships last Friday/Saturday. We also scaled every match, but that's a different thread.

Re: Cheval auto club!
 

3322 used simple timers in our code. It had to be rewritten 2 hours before finals because of a difference between our home defenses and the comp ones. It had never been tested on a field before, and we were pretty pleased that it worked every time.

Re: Cheval auto club!
 

Team 2403 Plasma Robotics is a member of the club, we dialed it down in our first competition at Arizona North and continued it at Arizona West Regional. We made it to Semi-finals both times.

Re: Cheval auto club!
 

3620 has a CDF high goal auto from positions 2-4.
