The hybrid modes focus mainly on informing the robot what "lane" to be in on the straight-aways (for now!).

Another power-house Simbot. Congrats on Midwest.
Your hybrid looks so smooth to actually be getting lane changes signaled. We're on mechanums this year. We took off our encoders. Except for basic forward, mechanums are somewhat hard to compute the location.
See you at Waterloo.
For me, FIRST is inspiration with a positive feedback loop - it just keeps getting better. I wonder where it will go from here... - petek [more]
