Re: Preseason Project Help

We've done the air cannon, and several of the other ideas above. This year, we watched the teaser video and came up with our own game to fit the teaser, and we're designing and building a robot to play THAT game. We sort of blew through the strategy parts, so we have three actions plus drive that the robot must be able to do. (pick up nerf football; shoot nerf football through a goal made from the lid of a trash can (same size lid as 2015 Recycle Rush), and "actuate a steam valve".

We also have side projects making workbenches and storage solutions and such to help us cope with our new smaller build space.
