Good luck to all of you and be sure to stop into our pits to say hi

Re: Archimedes!!!
 

just touching up on what alicia said already:

yes, we DO have autonomous modes.
1. dump balls in corner goal
2. shoot on center goal from middle position (problems with this thanks to an unfocused camera, but we fixed that so it *should* be working just perfect now)

and yeah, the camera's fixed. but if it breaks again, we do have manual that works well.

and as far as power, yeah we dont have so much. BUT! we do have brakes. and they sorta keep us in place.
