My suspicion is that both the Curie and Galileo pairs will be looking for a floor pickup bot with a wing-to-wing 5 disc. IMO, a reliable wing-to-wing 5 is probably one of the single most desirable features to the top alliances at CMP. 469's got it, 1477 was working on it. Anyone else have one? Lots of teams are doing the center-forward 7 disc. Many of those will be top seeds, and pulling the 15 disc perfect auto requires that plus a wing-to-wing 5, or an as yet unseen 9 disc auto, with a 1241-esque pickup, albeit needing more ground clearance than 1241 has.
We've got a 5-disc auton working on our practice bot... whether that translates into real success at champs is the question
