I have a prediction: robots like this, with few moving parts and a passive 10 point hang, will tear it up on the Friday of regionals while everyone else (minus the elites) are trying to get their mechanisms working. Congrats on a great design! Have a great time competing.

That's a mean Lightning machine you got there, is it a feeder slot shooter? I'll be at Kettering cheering you on (although we won't be competing there).
Best of luck!

Love the design and congrats at Kettering. You have a shifter correct? Did you guys go with the pneumatic or electric? And did you get the vex shifter? Or the andymark one?

Thanks MrRiedemanJACC. We have AndyMark Super Shifters using pneumatic shifting.

Thanks for the information! You could tell it really worked well!
Also, please tell Jay I said hi. I was lucky enough to take the the IED class with him this summer at Eastern Michigan.
