Re: Ultimate Ascent Strategies
Our team has developed a few strategies:

Butterfly Bot: have extremedies that drop down and make our robot wider, while staying within the 54 inch diameter, this gives us good defense abilities. With that we are able to sit infront of the feederstation and completely cut if off from being used.

God bot: Do everything perfectly and make waffles/pancakes on the side (our team has gotten way to far into trying to do that)

Defense bot: This is my personal strategy and I find it very realistic and feasible. Have a short robot that can reliably hang a 30 and drive under the pyramid, feed alliance partners, possibly pick up off the floor, reliably score in the low goal, and play awesome defense. Would anybody think that a robot like that would be picked at competitions? I'm trying to convince my teammates that it could be successful.

There are some others but my fingers as well as my mind are tired, I'll post later when I'm a bit more rested and have more to report on of value.
