Team 694 is a very special member of the cheval auto club, having joined by using an untested auto during semifinals at our first regional.
We had been planning on running our rockwall auto for semifinals but our encoders got damaged, causing our robot to
flip on the rockwall
We had a cheval auto that we had tested on our wooden practice field, and we couldn't risk flipping again, so we decided to just run it, figuring that the encoder issue would, at worst, cause us to only get a reach in auto.
It was... dramatic, to say the least.

After this match, the opposing alliance was forced to pick portcullis against us, even though we had an alliance partner with a passive portcullis mechanism.
Time to iterate, more. - jwfoss [more]
