Thanks Chris! Now I am looking forward to seeing our "twin" bot
At this point the robot can not right itself, but we may be adding this feature by other means if necessary. Our tipping point is about 80-85 degrees so we don't expect to do much "tipping" since our CG is very low.
As for scoring on the top row backwards, this really depends on which claw we are using for competition. We have 2 iterations of a pneumatic claw and one roller claw. We will probably be deciding this weekend after driver testing.

If my shop was snowed in and my unfinished robot was sitting in there, I'd dig it out with a plastic spoon or melt it out with a Bic lighter if I had to. Every hour counts. If there's a will, there's a way to make it happen. - sanddrag [more]
