robot retrievel

At the end of the game, if our lift is at full extension, can we have a bipass switch that will lower the lift after the game has ended so we can get the robot off the field?

Re: robot retrievel

You would have to make it a mechanical "bypass". You will not be permitted to apply power to any motors after the match is over.

Re: robot retrievel

If you're using pneumatics however, you could just have the solenoid release right as the match ended.
