Re: One week in, what are you doing?

We're trying to put a redirector underneath the ball return so that as soon as a ball enters the field, we roll it right into the goal!

Re: One week in, what are you doing?

We're doing a three ball auton ,then in teleop we're inbounding and passing over the truss to our human player, who will pass to our alliance partner who's sitting in front of the low goal waiting to score.

Re: One week in, what are you doing?

When the water leaks in to the control box it is shorting out all sorts of stuff. We are thinking of using tampons to absorb the water....

Re: One week in, what are you doing?

I was thinking odf using pneumatic tires to float on the water. It'd take quite a few, but it should work.

Re: One week in, what are you doing?

We're building a drive train that can go over the 4" bump and an inverted wedge to deal with the teeter totters. Then we are going to shoot balls into the high goal.

(oh wait, that actually works for this game too )

Re: One week in, what are you doing?

Well, we're going to try to assist the ball down the field, hope the referees don't make mistakes, and launch a ball into the high goal eight times.

And maybe win our regionals?
