Here's the best match, 9 high goals and a climb. No flashlight or camera. https://youtu.be/ZwAIS9kCU_w

The ROBOHAWKS team 346 did well this year w/o vision.
Wins in Chesapeake took us to the Worlds, Hopper division.
Where we enjoyed some continued success.

I believe that 2771 was probably the best non- vision robot. They at one point held the world record for the highest score, with the help of Ground Zero (I believe) and the Comets (3357). They had a great low bar cycle and I loved their robot design. Their ball detecting system I believe was they watched the change in voltage of their intake motors. So when they detected a significant drop, they could see a ball was in. To make their robot even more interesting, all the motors minus the drive motors were bag motors. They even used bag motors to move their arm. They may have one of my favorite robots, and they did so good with only a flashlight if I'm not mistaken.

We used vision in auton, but for tele-op the defense shot was all flashlight.

team 4028, The beak Squad had a camera with a recital sight (no full auto vision), it was super sweet and they did really well.

I can agree with this. 2771 undefended was just a beast cycling through that low bar so well. They could probably solo capture undefended even if the tower strength was at 10.

I would rank 148 as the best with no vision in teleop! They were lights out awesome from anywhere on the field!
