Watch the robot on the Coopertition bridge play defense on 548.
Which is why we (FRC 862) chose to build our fender bot with a "sideways" shooter. So we can use the drivetrain to push back and get into position. Worked pretty well at Livonia when there was some tough defense played on us in elims. See the video from post #16 for some highlights.

Should be a great competition. Can't wait!
