Re: To use or Not to use sensors?

Sensors are a great thing to have. Team 1323 has never used sensors and we have done great at comps. But this is a brand new year and we are going all out. We are using sensors on every motor not just because itz cool but we want to get motor feedback. Our bot would not be possible without the CNC and sensors. Building a bot that is fully autonomous is the goal. A piece of advice is get in contact with successful teams or DAN from above. Getting help through an expert helps. Also sensors help the "BOT from killing itself." Limit switches and so on. Also sensors make it so that you don't need a whole lot of "DRIVER FINESSE" to score orbit balls and make it all auto with a manual override just incase your turre...... doesn't work.

Need help with sensors P.M. me or IM me
