Re: Team 1114 - Simbot SideSwipe

The more I think about it:

I've watched 1114 dominate year in and year out for 13 years now.

I would find it highly suspect if they hadn't examined the ability to right those upside down containers or stack them as-is, given their demonstrated prowess at eliminating the first 18 right-side-up ones.

They'd have to know that to beat the best of the best at championship that 3x 6stacks won't be enough. There will be several teams by champs that can do what 1114 just did. Karthik has routinely stated that 1114 doesn't build robots to win regionals, they build robots to win Championship.

There's a bin-flipper or upside-down-bin-stacker in Sideswipe somewhere. Or at the very least, a plan to add one.
