Re: How are you picking up the tetras?

our team was going to go for the simple hook method, but since we thought of it so quickly, we figured everyone else did too ...which turns out to be true...
so we decided to spice things up. our gripper holds all 3 sides facing you off of the auto loader. first we line up by touching the bottom, then we grasp onto the two sides, this gives us much more control of the tetra so we wont lose it while running around the field and getting hit by other bots.
also, it has a certain coolness effect to it, maybe the movie Tremors will stir up your imagination .. we'll post pics later
