Re: The ultimate game breaker bot.
seems to me that you could probably get the deflector configured in such a way that the energy of the ball coming down the return is enough to push it forward and hit the angled part of the hump, which, if positioned right, could give it the required energy to go directly into the goal. now sure, a defensive bot could try to get in the way, but if you're able to change the direction the ball goes, then what can they do? the ball is smaller and faster than a 120lb robot.
