Team 1261 is working on hybrid but i'm not sure what we plan to do...
Our elevator only goes up to knock the ball down if the robocoach gives it the go up signal, if there is no signal then no ball knock off. The only times we missed in Philly were when the signal didn't get to the 'bot in time which is because there's about a .25 second window of error because in the time it takes the robot to move the 27 feet to the overpass ~2 seconds or so is the same time it takes to process the signal from the robocoach and move the elevator up
