Re: Team 578 can hurdle

Right now the boot weighs 12 lbs at the end. We'll also be weighing our robot down for better stability.

That's a good point, we extended and checked and we're around 78.5 inches.
As for working, it will shoot every time, we only have problems trying to pick up the trackball with our forks, that's something we're going to try to improve before the 19th.

Our drive train, I haven't seen much more than a few seconds of it maneuvering, but we were going cautiously to make sure we could pick up the ball. I don't know what our top fps is right now.
