While I do hope this works out for them at champs, I have to agree that based on this video, it is doubtful this particular routine would actually get the ball in a legal starting position. It seems that the bot just barely doesnt cross the line, but the ball also seems to be 2 inches closer
I'm not going to claim to know 254's intake geometry, but from the angle of the camera, 2 inches farther and it wouldn't get a grip on that ball.
Of course, I imagine this isn't the final iteration either.
The Indiana Mafia? We are very insulted. Another comment like that and you could wind up having a couple of broken legs. But thanks for the good words - Bill Beatty [more]
