Re: Our first climb and dump of the season!

One of the issues we had tonight was getting stuck climbing... by the bumpers rubbing against the uprights!

Oh, and two more notes... with the exceptions of a safety trigger (if we release, all motion immediately stops) and a manual button for the dumper, the entire sequence (once lined up) is completely automated. Also, the dumper should be able to dump into the low goal, but we haven't built one as it wasn't a priority. Maybe we'll check that out in Duluth
How long do you think (once your drivers are practiced and you have the routine down) to go from lined up to climbed to the top and frisbees scored?
