Re: Reflective material

I think such a strategy would work, but it doesn't require accurate passes like that. Just throwing the balls in the general area of the robot so that your partner can ground acquire would be just as effective.

Besides, if your robot can shoot balls into another robot, you might as well shoot balls into a hoop. The more balls you score, the more balls come out of the inbounder station on your scoring side, and the less useful a passing strategy becomes.

To answer the question: yes, ask the GDC.

If you come to a FRC event to see a robot competition, you are missing the point.

If you are not willing to put in the work of showing that you are not breaking R08c you shouldn't do it.
