Our solution to this was to just start with the joysticks full forward. Easier, more reliable, and it didn't lock us into running headfirst if we didn't want to.
That seems reasonable. You still have to live with a potentially negligible time delay between when your robot becomes live and when it gets the first joystick command. These may occur simultaneously, but, you never know.

Personally I think a fully autonomous competition would be horrible (Im biased cause Im a driver) I've seen autonomous robotics competitions before. They are a difficult engineering challenge (even with tons of expensive sensors), but they are boring to watch.
You mean you don't want to watch a robot stuck in a corner, repeatedly executing the same failed maneuver, banging on the playing field border over and over and over and ...? Now that's entertainment!

Andrew, Team 356
