Re: Team 3313 Practice Run #2

You look a lot like you might be able to score from hanging position. That would be really cool.

Also, I suggest you practice cutting down time in your loading sequence. Two things I have noticed that work well:
1. Slam into the feeder station and let your bumpers allow you to become flush to the wall.
2. Have your human player stack 4 frisbees and balence them on one hand. Then, use your other hand to "shuffle" the top frisbee through the slot. Feed continuously.

Best of luck. Keep us posted.
