Re: Successful "Y" in autonomous
714 did it a Chesapeake. Their alliance with 836 & 237 hit 3 tube autos frequently.

I am not a big fan of line following, it is too slow and jerky for me. We did it it as an exercise for the student programmers on the 6wd development bot but never intended to use it on the competition bot. Just ignore the lines and drive straight to the pegs using gyro, even if you are in the middle. We put a single line sensor on to allow for auto minibot alignment, but I don't think the drivers have needed it
