One program!

Team 2710 ran the board at the Flint MI tournament on one program. When they were at my table, they scored a 390 - the power lines were 1/4 inch off so they only connected 2 properties. They had other problems on other rounds during the day. An amazing bit of programming. They would come back to base and wait a few seconds, as the team gave the robot new pieces, without ever touching the robot. Sometimes the team pre-positioned pieces in base and the robot snagged them as it passed by. They even released elements on the field and then regained control of them for better positioning.

Great work, Brother's Keepers!
