Hopefully, if not I believe we have a black backup as part of our aforementioned contingency plan. One of our mentor has worn that green bow in her hair at competitions the last few years. We sort of based the rest of the tux decorations on that bow.

There are dedicated Empty Cell collectors using window motors (Denso left and right) on both sides of the robot. They use a limit switch for cell detection and 10 turn pot geared with modded gears from the FP gearbox to set to 3 different positions (collect, hold, deposit).
