Re: Feeder Robots

We have discussed this scenario also. We feed from the front and shoot out the back. The thought could be we unload all 20 balls from our hopper and then receive balls from another team that has low goal capability.

We have never tried it, but would like to maybe in a practice round just to see.


Our robots look like this.

Re: Feeder Robots

We considered running a strategy with 195 during the qualifiers where they were backbot, picked up a lot of balls, dumped them out into our harvesting mechanism, and then played defense for us while we shot.

Unfortunately, we only had one match together and we needed to concentrate on winning it more than try out a cool strategy.

But it would have been sweet.
