But this extendable arm could be used to pull the mobile goals toward you in autonomous mode. Think Rage(173?)'s 2007 robot.But, I think the Champion will be the team who replicates beatty's awsome 2002 robot and modifies it to grab all 3 of the goals ( 2 single and one half of the paired goal)

The ability to grab all 3 goals is only 28 points (7X4). If a robot could score 6 out of 28 of their rings onto the double goals, they would beat out all 3 goals on the alliance quadrant.

However, if a robot could do both... hmmmmm
