We'll see how everything plays out. I hope it continues to work as well as it did last night. We could get 6 balls in the hopper in under 15 seconds, and wow, it shoots them out FAST!.

Great job guys! A huge difference when compared to last year's robot, I wish you tons of luck even though you won't need a bit of it :)

I did not mean to imply that your robot is not a worthy by asking if you can climb or hang. Your robot looks great, I was just wondering if it had capabilities beyond the obvious big ball/small ball handling.

As to your strategy, our team found the balance to be a bit different in terms of ranking hanging, but that is why this FIRST game is so fun, a lot of smart folks make their best guess and off they go. Heck, what do we know, we thought stacking would matter last year ;-)

As to deciding on a small set of features and implementing them well, I could not agree with your team more. The more I am involved in FIRST the more I think that it is important to know the limits of your team and the limits of physics for your robot. It seems like your team has a handle on both issues.

Hats off to you.
