Yes, the reason we have been struggling with that is that the proper extension position for the drop is not set yet. When it is in the proper position, it drops right into the grasp of our blocking arm, which pins it against the lane divider as soon as the ball hits the ground, both getting it stable to be grabbed again by the suction cup, and to keep other robots from knocking it away. This problem should be resolved sometime tomorrow morning however. Most of our problems at the moment are in the same area, missing sensor values. Once this thing gets some more testing time under its belt, we'll be much, much faster.
