After Auton mode the robot feeds all of the balls to the android. Then caps the soon filled goal. And floats to the platform where it will sit on top of the bar.

It will also have a tractor beem to pull it's alliance partner onto the bar in the last 10.5 seconds of the game.  |
And all of this with nothin' but good ol' PVC!
