2. Can we use joystick control to open and close the jaw to load the keeper before starting the match in autonoous mode?

Thanks!
about the 2nd question: you are not allowed to use the joystick control in order ot open or close the jaws, you must do it by hand.

and about the first question... i was wondering the same thing.
