Re: [FVC]: 3053's Robot

As team leader of FVC #3228, I would like to add to our mentor's question.

For our robot, we had to put zipties on our single tank tread because the tank tread couldn't apply enough pressure to the balls to prevent them from slipping back down. If we lowered the height of the tank treads to add more pressure, then the balls couldnt get past the manipulator (front of the tank tread that had the wheel)..

Any secrets there? Or just extra tight tank treads?

Also, I was wondering about the bumper switch on the top of the tower, what is it's purpose?
