Absolutely. This is where the discussion of spin and the possible benefit/cost of trying to exploit the magnus effect began. Looks like we're going to provide an adjustable mechanical bias to test that hypothesis as well, primarily comparing performance in cases where either no spin or forward spin are imparted on the game piece.

..this is the first robot we've built that succeeded at everything we wanted it to. It was simple. It was low maintenance. It scored effectively. It had an autonomous that worked. Its look caught attention. And it was finished on schedule. - Donut [more]
