Re: How to pick up a frisbee

Yeah, our team initially planned to do a mechanism to pick up discs from the floor but..

Guys lets be honest.. each team on your alliance gets 17 discs. I think in the 1:30 tele-op (not including end game) it's very reasonable that you'd be able to traverse the field to your hopper, get filled, go back, score, and repeat to get pretty much just those 17 discs in (if even).

In other words, don't worry about picking up discs. Go get filled because it takes attention off of picking up and elevators and focuses on filling some hopper on your robot that'll go straight into a shooter. In 1:30, I can't see getting more than 17 discs across anyway. If you do, that's excellent, just be happy with that!
