Re: Flag, Flag Holder vs Trackballs
On our robot (Phoenix) we have the flag mounted on a 12" pivot. 500ms before we fire, the flag moves out of the way. After firing it moves back to its pre-launch position to keep it from being broken by passing robots. In our videos you can see the flag in the launch position. Our programmers didn't have the pivot programmed in yet.
It works great.
