Re: Storm Robotics Team 2729 Robot, "Fonzie"

Thought I'd share some of our unbag work as we look to get ready for the Lenape-Seneca District Competition this week. We spent some time doing some shooter modifications to increase consistency by replacing our winch and surgical tube with a piston. We saw that the modifications really increased our shooting consistency and created a shot that is much more repeatable. The team also took some time to move our air tanks from their previous, totally exposed, position.

The team also had time to test our autonomous modes in the last hour of un-bag time. One ball autonomous is down and two ball is super close. Here's video on where we ended up at the end of the night.

We're looking forward to Lenape-Seneca. Can't wait to see everyone there!

Nate
