IN spams case that compressor was the most important thing on our bot, yes we also had a pnuematic goal graber but we shifted back and forth between gears at least 10 times in one match. we even broke our toggle switch to sift one but thanks to our driver who has long finger nails (he plays guitar) we were still able to shift.
