1115A Warren toss up qualifier

VEX Robotics Competition Discussion VRC > Previous Games

So the Warren toss up competition was tonight and I’d have to say we didn’t do very well. We went 3-2 and was knocked out in the first round of elimination. We had a lot of bad luck with partners and even got DQ’d one match for accidentally touching the opponent’s hanging bar. The robot worked as expected and generally did a great job. Something we need to improve on is a big ball manipulator and/or a hanging mechanism. Our fellow Greenfield teams also did well with 1115C going 4-1 and also being knocked out of elimination in the first round. We recorded all of ours and team Cs matches and they should be up some time soon. I will probably post the links here. For the next competition in February, we plan to change the whole intake and lifting mechanism possibly to a 6 bar lift.

A breakdown would be a misnomer here… a full research paper on ref rulings and such might-just might- suffice here. :smiley:

Zionsville performed decently well: all of our teams in attendance made it to eliminations with 7702 and 7708 making it to their divisional finals (I was in division 2, 8 was in division 1 against Jesse).

Yeah it was pretty tough competition. We barely made it to eliminations, but got picked by the last seed and lost to 323zx 5003 and 323b.
