Looking forward to seeing it in action.
Its actually not as hard as it looks to line up. We have to have just about the same amount of accuracy as the poofs when lining up to climb. What helps though is that their is a line of black tape in the center of the field. Simply line your robot with the center of the line and you will be good at the top.
