Re: Tower Flag drops when weekend
The flag assemblies were up and working at PNW Wilsonville, I was involved in getting them setup and tested on the field. The alliance flag will drop as soon as the tower is weakened in match. The capturing alliance flag will not raise until final scores are announced post-match, as it relies on getting committed ref scoring for challenge and scale of each robot.
The lowering flag worked without a hitch. The raising flag took some adjustment to get it so the latch solenoid could overcome the spring force. Once setup, it worked flawlessly all weekend.
It is a great game detail getting to see the flags raise and lower on the tops of the castles.
