Re: FRC Team 3880 - Tiki Techs Reveal

Nice looking bot Tiki Tech! Sorry we won't get to see you it action at the Hawaii Regional. Looks like you took Waiakea's approach from last year and adapted it for Frisbees. We thought about doing that too, but took another path.

Couple of comments...In the video it didn't look like you had the 60 degree chute behind the feeder slot. Not sure if you planned for that in your design. Looks like your feeder station loading might be sensitive to the angle that the disc drops from. Also, in your summary you say that you're able to shoot pyramid goals in the last 30 seconds. Why wait until the end? Go for those right after autonomous. We're a tall shooter too and that's what we plan to do.

Good luck in California!
