We are a rookie team and would value any input from anyone thank you

Well done. This is an excellent robot for a young team. Get some driving practice in and a solid strategy and this thing will do well.

[sprocketman92]

Thank you and we are practicing really hard we are even going to a scrimmage this sunday and we all hope you are right

On the scoring video, how close is your dumper getting to the hoop, it looks right on top of it. Any side video or pictures?

[sprocketman92]

we are about 2 inches away which is just about 13 1/2 out of our frame and i don't know if you saw the extender if you are still interested i will put more pics on

I could sort of see it, I just wasn't quite sure on the distance. We had some want this idea for consistant scoring and I'm glad to see someone go for it!

If you don't mind, one from the side would be great!

[sprocketman92]

right now i dont have a picture from the side but i will be sure to put one one tomorrow

Looks very nice especially from a rookie team. But don't forget that you need your team number on the front bumper.

[sprocketman92]

Thank you and we arent sure how to put the numbers on the front yet do you have any suggestions?

[Garten Haeska]

We had the same problem not quite sure how thy did it though....

Most have been putting them on just one side of the opening. I saw one team with them split apart, but I'm not 100% sure if it's legal.

[sprocketman92]

we were thinking about splitting it but had the same question if it was legal or not

[Garten Haeska]

I know for a fact it's not legal!

[sprocketman92]

Oh thanks we are putting the rest of our bumpers together tomorrow and we will put them on one side then

To verify the post above it is not legal to split the numbers as per a Q&A ruling:
A. Per [R35], team numbers must be clearly visible. This means that they may not be inverted, obscured, fragmented, upside down, etc.

keyword, fragmented.
