Re: [FTC]: Autonomous Ideas?

picklejarheads,

it seems like your robot holds onto 4 batons and then unloads the rest from the dispenser at which point your have more than 5 batons on/in/controlled by your robot. this appears to be something you would be penalized for, having more than 5 batons. please correct me if i have a misunderstanding of either the rules or the performance of your bot.

looks like a great design.

Re: [FTC]: Autonomous Ideas?

The judges never called us for this, even though we did technically, for short periods of time have more than 5 batons in possession. They even said that if we had some batons on the conveyor at the end of autonomous, they wouldn't penalize us if our first action in TeleOp was to drop them. Not sure this is backed up by the actual rules though...
