Re: Defense, It's still here.

I didn't get to read this whole thread, so sorry if this has been mentioned.

A simple defense in hybrid mode should be very possible for all teams. They could just place their robot the farthest to the left it can be as a starting position, and then in hybrid mode just drive forward about 5 feet. They would then be blocking the middle of the lanes in perfect placement to stop autonomously controlled robots from continuing around the course.
