Yes, we won the Engineering Inspiration award at Buckeye, so we're off to Atlanta. Now I have an FRC and FLL team at Nationals..... Oh I think I'm going to be busy.

Here is a link to a cool Hybrid clip from one of our elimination matches.

Thanks to 191 for working with us to double-team our hybrid mode. We use Sonar and Gyro to do rapid laps, but the sonar is a bit slow in detecting the end of lane divider. By having a R/Coach at each end of the field we were able to reduce our lap times by giving the bot advanced turning info.
