Great solution to this year's game!! We will be watching to see how it performs, but, I think we will see you guys playing in late April. Can a tall robot block your shot from the "safe zone"?

Whoa! What do I call that drivetrain, a 3-wheeled semi-swerve?
Really cool.

No - we can flip the ball over a tall robot right in front of us. Getting into the right position is still a challenge. (We didn't have a lot of drive time before bag & tag.) To aim, we turn the swerve wheel sideways - this allows fine corrections. We also turn the swerve wheel sideways to park on the batter.

Re: pic: FRC 525 2016 Robot

We're pretty happy with the way our 3 wheel robot performed. The biggest issue seemed to be a regulator that wouldn't hold consistent pressure. (We didn't see this issue on the practice bot.) The students replaced it once, but late in the competition the new regulator started acting up - the pressure drifts high.
