In UTC we had our turret tracking in the pit, never worked on the field, we had it working in pits at SBPLI, wasn't useful til finals.

Trust me when I say, without a true field test, you can't say it works, and no offense to your team because I've seen your robot and I was very impressed, there's a good chance it's going to take more than a bit of tweaking to make it track, however if you would like some help, feel free to contact me in Atlanta, I've managed to make our robot score consistently in autonomous, even while being rammed, so I hope that means I know what I'm doing ;-)

I'm a FIRST relic of sorts, I remember when we used PBASIC and we got CH Flightsticks in the KoP. In my day we didn't have motorized carts, we pushed our robots uphill, both ways! (Houston 2003!)
