Re: How Would You Change Your Robot

Having a dedicated inbound/defense bot was reasonably competitive but not a lot of fun especially when paired with a weaker alliance.


PID for pickup actuation. It worked well in practice but it wasn't robust enough for competition.


Using a jvn style instead of a "drop down" intake.

A woven carbon fiber tube for a goalie bar instead of a pulltruded one that split along its grain.
