With there being 80 cones on the feild and only 60 seconds in a skills match does anyone think a perfect skills score will be possible this year? If not what do you think the highest score this season will be?
My current understanding of the rules lead me to believe it is unlikely, based on drive time and cycle time estimates. My understanding may be (and likely is) faulty.

The cycle time would not be impossible, provided that you made a robot which could build stacks to very tall heights and then place them. Sure, driving back and forth would be impossible in 60sec, but the way to go in this instance is building then placing stacks
I really want to be wrong.
challenge accepted. Give me a week
You would need an average cycle time of .88 seconds per cone (if you spend 100% of your time stacking cones). The taller the stack gets the longer it takes to lift. To minimize stack height you would need to put 8 on each mobile goal and two on each high goal. You would need to raise the top cone 28.12 inches to place it on mobile goals and 26.67 inches to place it on the high goals. That’s not unreasonably high, but doing it 68 times with considerably less than a second per cycle demands a wicked fast robot and leaves no room for error.
I don’t see this happening, and if it does they’ll probably just add more preloads.
It will be 65 cones for skills challenge.
There is only 1 set of match load available.
But I still think it is impossible to stack all 65 cones into one mobile base and bring it back to the 20-points zone in one minute.
@NightsRosario I would like to see it happen. But my physics mind is telling me that you might need to activate time Travelling to make it possible, ie. you need time to move around to collect the cones as well.
I’m mostly joking around. I don’t really think it’s possible either. But I will try to get as close to perfect as possible.
It would be much more possible except for preloads.
Sounds impossible. Challenge Accepted

Might as well join, challenge accepted.
By the way, there is only 65-70 scoring objects in the skills and not 80.
Well all the objects are in a relative line from corner to corner, so you wont waste very much time driving…
Isn’t this illegal? I’m pretty sure you cannot hold multiple cones like that
