: Does Beatty have a post-game autonomous mode like we predicted? OK, it's just a little illegal and very impossible . .but let's hear it. Speak up all yee at regionals. :-Dan

If I interpret your question correctly, that is impossible.

At the end of a match power to the transmitter is removed. When the master CPU in the receiver (to which we have no access) ceases to receive data from the transmitter it disables
all outputs. When the outputs are disabled the control program is not able to manipulate any mechanisms on the robot.
