Re: Overview: Nationals
Definitely better than Houston.

However there needs to be 4 practice fields, 1 for each division. They don't have to have all the electronics, just a field where teams can work on their autonomous code.

We added a small lexan arm on the Thursday to hit the 10 pt ball and it was impossible to get enough practice time.

The walk for the robot was a big improvement but we burned up a lot of valuable time going to the stands and back.
