Re: Week Zero Discussion/Impressions/Discoveries/Fun Facts

Our robot was able to pick-up off the ground and catch either over the truss or on an inbounding toss from the human player very effectively. This really helped our cycle times. Most matches we caught tosses from the human player and would then feed the ball to one of our alliance partners to toss over the truss (we would then try to catch), or for scoring into the high goal directly. Unfortunately in our last qualification match a bearing in one of our wheels exploded so we only had two wheels on one side (only one of which was powered). Additionally, in our last qualification match our alliance partner, Team 58, had their shooting mechanism broken off of their robot and was tipped over. Despite being the second seed, we lost in the first round of elimination matches.
