[FTC]: Bowled over prototyping

[lemiant]

Hey Guys,

I've done FTC for the past two years, but this year its no dice. Being an addict I would love to do some design. Unfortunately I don't have a field so I was wondering if some people who end up playing around with the field would be willing to post their findings, specifically:

• How easily can the magnet sensor detect the magnet balls?
• How easily do the cylinder and balls slide off the top of the stack?
• With a most of the balls on the field, how many can a good collector grab in a minute?
• How hard is it to push the ball up the ramp?
• Anything else unexpected or coll that you noticed?

Thanks in advance for any answers,

- Alex
