Re: Rethinking the Low bar

Caveat: this is the eve of our first competition.

No way - I think we made all the right to-level choices. Things really came together tonight - we're driving and (manually) aiming with a camera now, and We have the driving (low bar, B, or D) if not aiming and shooting parts of auto working. We can make high goals more than half the time, with a fairly high arch, and low goals more consistently. The only real concern about making a solid run at the banner is the beating that the robots (and field) are taking this year, and building a tall robot would only have made those worse.

I'll try to remember to post a follow-up on Sunday.
