Re: [FTC]: NEW ROBOT DESIGNS!

I like how all the rings shoot all the way down the slides to get nearer the platform, but still do not roll away in every direction. Floor pickup seems easier too, especially one at a time.

The elevator seems quite fast and the short arm reach seems just enough for coming in to score from different angles, often avoiding the wood edge.

If you can only further upgrade the gripper to pick up two at a time and then individually score them, this could really become a very high scoring bot.
