St. Louis is using the new flaps and we haven't had any real problems to my knowledge.

Re: Low Bar Flaps Removed at Alamo Regional

The Medieval Car Wash (thanks Joel) at Kettering #2 is holding up well. I saw a flap flip over the top bar once, so there was a partial opening for the rest of the match. One of them has a piece of black tape on the portion that loops over the bar, so there must have been a small hole that they patched. The zip ties around the bar that act as spacers slide sometimes, so the gaps get a bit wider and narrower, but field reset repositions them for the next match. I haven't seen any robots having problems with them.

Re: Low Bar Flaps Removed at Alamo Regional

The new Low Bar flaps were not installed on Friday at Alamo, they were still using the orgional flaps until they had to be removed. They didn't get the shipment in time to have them installed on Friday morning. The new flaps were installed last night and will be used today.
