The robot was at the opposite side of the field, there was lots of movement going on, the fabric obstructed the view somewhat as well... I was down on the field w/ the support team, and it was very hard to see... I even had a better view on the side of the field than our driver did! Besides, as the arm driver for a competition as well, I can say that the arm is very quick, and the slight change in position between "over" and "in" are very hard to make with the controls.
