Wow, any team that can cap is 5-7 seconds will amaze me. I think about it this way:
capping the big ball on a goal last year is a "simmilar" activity, you have to pick it up, raise it up, align it, and then get it to stay the way you wanted. Seems pretty easy. Many teams thought they could do this in 10 seconds. The best teams under optimal conditions could do it in about that time. Most teams took about 25 - 35 seconds.
I thik good teams will be able to place 4-5 tetras per match, given the driving skill involved in placing them and the fact that 3 opposing robots could be trying to stop you or at least be in your way.
Any team that can score in 5-7 seconds will not only be my hero, but you are welcome to ally with us
Good luck scoring those tetras!
