Re: Capping Goal Time
In testing yesterday, (with our wooden center goal) I nabbed a tetra out from in it and capped it on top in about 3-5 seconds. Mind you, I started within about 2 ft of the goal, with the arm fully retracted. But still, It think that's pretty good time for the center goal. I'm not sure, I haven't heard too much from other teams. I would assume that our arm being operated by a piston will give us some advantages in speed (at least with our setup).
