You might make it to the top in 3 seconds but it has not happen yet.

And by the way it looks like if someone puts a bin in front of your robot the robot does not do well.

I see you are a little top heavy. Having a robot be able to flip you now is not a good thing.
Thanks for the compliments.

Just to let you know, our "INS" was not installed at the UTC scrimmage, we were running off "dead reckoning" - the reason it looked like a bin gave us problems was really because the program was not done correctly.

If you watched all of the UTC matches, you would see that in our final match we were able to successfully get to the top of the ramp under autonomous, in low gear.

If you are going to post something negative about a robot, at least have correct information.

Thanks, looking forward to seeing everyone tomorow at BAE

Tom
