Re: Inbounders!

I have seen some skillful inbounding across the field. Something not mentioned explicitly is accurate end position. Placing the ball by the robot so it doesn't have to chase saves vital seconds. I have seen balls roll in to an awaiting robot's intake system. Be able to vary the path of the inbounded ball. Being predictable allows the other alliance's robot to steal or block balls easily.

My $0.02 on inbounding.
