Re: Ball Launcher Test 3 going big!

I'm looking forward to something like this.

Ideally if you can dump into the low goal than you may be able to dump into a robot for them to shoot.

Re: Ball Launcher Test 3 going big!

One of our local teams is planning on a three ball auto, and I don't doubt that they can do it.

Basically to have a multiple ball autonomous it would mean a very accurate long distance shooter and a fast pick up and a perfectly placed second ball and robot.
I'd disagree, it's one of the easiest years for multiple game piece autonomous. Remember, you can put robots wherever you want within the White Zone and in any orientation, and their balls can be on the ground next to them. The second and third balls can be right behind the robot, ready for pickup. The robot should only need to drive a couple feet at most. Long range shooters are not out of reach for most teams.
