Just to be clear how loose our rollers are on our 2012 robot, the rollers will spin a couple time after flicking them.

Ok thanks, I'll test all of this out Wednesday. I would prefer to keep mecanum for this year.
Don't let the teams here be so much of an intimidation to you, but instead, an inspiration. They all had to start from the beginning, too. - Amanda Morrison [more]
