Re: Team 3606's 30Pt Climber!
Do you have any plans for any qualification matches where your alliance partners may need the inside of the pyramid open to shoot through? I know some robots line up using the pyramid bars and shoot between them. I only ask because, if you can't drive, it implies that your plan is to immediately climb at the beginning of the match, and stay there for the rest of it, rather than playing defense or herding discs down field like some other dedicated climbers we've seen so far. If you spent 2 whole minutes in teleop (unless you start the process in autonomous?) you might be blocking a lot of potential points for your own alliance.
Also, the pessimist in me cant help but wonder, is there anything you can do to combat an opposing alliance robot ramming you and messing up your alignment for climbing? I know, it's a lot of points in penalties to interfere with a climb, but I'm curious. Again, I assume because you don't have a drivetrain, you'll be setting up your robot for climbing before the match, and cant move on the ground once the match has started.
