Re: Placing Tetras out of bounds
I would imagine that simply driving in front of their robot to stall them would be more benefical. I mean, if you really wanted to, you could build in a simple "emergency brake" (I believe that team 25 has a white paper on building such device - superlight) into your drive train so that you could just drive and brake and you wouldn't have to worry about stalling out your motors or burning time placing tetras out of bounds and out of play only temporarily.
