[Lavapicker]

We guarantee 10 in auto with our dunker and use pneumatics to lift our robot which we drive over the bridge to drop it by releasing the pressure and bringing the full weight of the robot on it. We had no problem getting on the bridge with Hilo and Honokaa in our practice sessions in Hilo (two robot balance only). We also added a ball collector which seemed to be a no-brainer but i don't see many out there in the first two weeks. Its a spinning device with fingers that allows us to collect along our full 28 inches in front so we're not trying to get that ball into a narrow 11 inch opening which so many teams seem to be doing and not too well. Watch out for the Big Island teams....both honokaa and hilo seem to be able to pop at least 10 in auto and score well. Once hilo zones in, one shot, they pop three pointers time after time. We were able to feed their robot with our arm to reload them. We hope to do it at least once in a practice round to show it off.
