The robots who can't use cans on their side are probably not the ones you're preparing to play with (at least not two of them) if you're about to use 4-7 cans in one match. Blue banners begin in autonomous, but they're born in shops like this.

and 148, 1678... (I know you said alliance partners, I just wanted to emphasize that it's necessarily by accident). Echoing Adam, "If you can't use bins that are knocked over, it's [EDIT: high past] time to reassess your design."

I should also be added that if your robot is designed to handle the recycling cans., and you can't handle a knocked over bin, it's time to reasaess your design.

Awsome!! ;D

I hope you have a version that goes for one or two containers, and I hope you have a strong drive train.

(Also, good luck ending with a 4 container autonomous and not a 4 lid one!)

You know the lids are zip tied shut, right?

I think this is a likely scenario, if one robot grabs high and another goes low. I would say that zip ties would break before robots let go, which leads to an interesting rules question: Can you score a can without the lid?

Re: Team 1678's 4 RC Autonomous

Sound to me like something being shot at all 4 of the containers. Possibly pneumatic because you can hear the compressor in the background. Also, at the end there is some type of winch sound pulling the RCs in.

Re: Team 1678's 4 RC Autonomous

I've been trying unsuccessfully all season to convince my team of the importance of getting the containers....


If this is legit and reliable, you guys are going to go very far my friends.
