Yeah. For this strategy, we were thinking of having a shooter. But we were going to design the robot around being able to reliably climb to the top and score 4 discs. The shooter seems like it is going to be the easier and smaller of the 2 tasks. Also, I'm not thinking it's going to be terribly important to pick up frisbee's with this strategy, so the turret doesn't have to be too complicated.
