stacking is all about timing......we can stack a stack of 4 consistently, then hold it till a few seconds left and drop it (since the fix we have had no dropping problems) also we have a method of bringing in boxes that are up to 45 degrees off line with the robot very easily, and we can righten boxes.....although I think that stacking alone can not be your whole strategy because of how easy it is to get knocked over, but if you can protect your stack then stacking is worth it......

I also have a theory on why many teams stacker's are not working well, and that is the fact that they arn't protecting the stack as they stack they are just putting one on top of another and so on.....and so far most of the successfully robots are enclosed stacking devices.....as time goes on I think that everyone will realized that stacker's are important; probably more then the king of the hill and that a successful stacker, paired with a good "tank" will do very well in this game..

to see our bot in action go to team soap's webpage and download match 79 from the buckeye........

See you all at nationals........
