Re: Shifting Transmission: Auto or Manual?

Our drive team traditionally prefers to drive in one gear where the game and robot role define the preferred "normal speed" and they have the alternate ratio available should they need it.

Some years the robot has been driven in "high" the majority of the match and "low" as needed to push or climb.
