Re: Mars/Wars shoooter testing video

We'll iterate until 11:59.

Right now the we have a plan to a three ball autonomous. The floor pickups aren't on the bot. I think I bet someone in 8 seconds, With the second ball passing through the goal during the change in hot zones. (did anybody ask that question?)

The structure off the back is a classic engineering tradeoff. Stay small and protected or big and bold. We've tested short arms inside the bumpers and long ones with a big catching volume. Our team is debating a lot about what it should look like. We have the pieces, we just need to figure out how to put them together.

The frame off the back was just a test and wouldn't handle a hit from my grandmother's walker.
