this is a picture of the Chatsworth preship scrimmage that i have wanted to upload for a while
our autonoumous code had a problem causing us to drive out to far before deploying our arm, our arm grabbed part of the center goal and the end result is clear
Hey, I remember that. Yeah it was at Chattsworth. One of the robots there was in autonomous mode. It went out doing its arm up and down and lifted up the center goal and tipped it over. It was the robot to the right in the pic.
i notice that theres no bottom to the center goal…where like tons of velcro was put soo id say poor velcro-ing led to this lol it look cool though, kinda surprised the refs didnt shut down the bot before it tipped the goal.
Hey, ya that was us, Team 1138, at the Pre-ship Scrimmage at Chatsworth. It was pretty cool watching from the operator’s station. The reason why that happened was because in our programming, we used dead reckoning in hope of picking up a tetra (if we were lucky) and placing it on the center goal. We almost scored a goal this way on the practice field at Atlanta, but didn’t have much luck during competition. But ya, thanks for remembering that and I hope to see some of the Southern California teams down at San Diego Lock-In.
