Re: Autonomous Strategy
My team (246) was one of the only team that I saw who could reliably cap during auto. mode at BAE. We started with a tetra on the back of our arm and swung it over the top dropping the tetra onto either corner goal, scoring 4 points and capping a goal. I believe that team 40 and team 121 (to a lesser degree) adopted this strategy from us when they saw us at the mini-meet in Quincy (apologies all around if I'm taking credit where I shouldn't be). We achieved this simply by placing one wheel against the bar and driving the other one forward until (according to our gyro) it had spun to be flush with the goal. Worked every time, at least enough to get the tetra onto the goal, if not fully capped.
I didn't see anyone cap with a vision tetra at BAE, however a couple of teams (maybe it was only one...) were able to dead reckon their way toward the center goal and occasionally (if they were lucky) cap.
Most people either sat there, or drove to the middle of the field/loading zone, which was a good strategy if you couldn't muster up anything else.
