Is there a specific reason that you guys used Labview? We switched to Java last year and have absolutely loved the Command Based system. We had used Labview before that, main reason for switching was the use in school and both the other mentor and I were better versed in it.

You can see the recording used in this video to hang on the lower bar. Our driver lines up under the bar and pushes a button and the robot drives backwards and drives forward. This was recorded on the practice field at the competition when we realized that our hanging mechanism was very sensitive to the speed that you hit the bar at. After the recording was done it was an extremely reliable mechanism.
