Max Height? (in ft, in 'how many tetras max on side', and in 'max on center')

MANIPULATOR:
Passive/Active?
How accurately does is pick up a tetra? (# of tries)
How accurately does is place a tetra? (# of tires)

Also, your autonomous section only highlights the fact that there is an autonomous mode, not what it does. One of the strongest pieces of our Detriot alliance was winning our entire home row in autonomous mode, it made life considerably easier.

Please don't take these comments negatively, they are only meant to be constructive critism, our team and I'm sure all the other teams at GLR appreciate what you're doing.
You have a good point. However, I know when I pit scouted we covered that. In the actual field scoring sheets, it's improtant to write "Manual 1: Fails to cap because of". That way we're not just saying " failed to cap ". Sometimes a tetra can be stolen or dropped becuase of other circumstances, so notes cover it.

If we have enough pit/field scouts we'll have discussion of it, and if you're there please contribute these ideas, though I don't know what some of them mean so you'd have to explain.
