I expect the mechanism to require testing and fiddling to get right. It wasn't 'designed-in" from the start, so we had to fit it in available space.

The number of hours the robot is out of the bag will seem too small and we have drivers that need practice on 'real' field elements.

So how many of you are looking at this this same way...?
This is EXACTLY our situation.
