Re: Auto Powerhouse?

We're certainly going to attempt the tote stack auto.
For the container auto, how about three hooks with a base that stands on the floor to an inch above the container's handle, on a rope to pull it in? If you pull the cord through a pulley up high, you could then carry the hooks around at altitude on the back of your 'bot for tele-op. Unless you could manage to put the containers down in an upright position, this would make it MUCH more difficult to score the containers in tele-op; If you had such a system, you'd probably have partners asking you not to use it most matches.
