Re: FIRST Robotics Competition Team 5817 "Uni-Rex" 2016 Robot Reveal: Ankylosaurus

6 of the defenses are very easy for us to accomplish. The two easiest by far are the low bar and rockwall. The remaining 3 defenses are more difficult. However we have successfully driven over them it takes some driving practice to know how to approach each one. We have a practice bot that will allow our drivers to work on practice more and more after bag and tag. As well as finalize our auto.

I don't think that bouncing out will be a problem, we have noticed that the balls lose a lot of their energy after hitting an object. And the spin will help it go in the down direction.
