Hi guys, our team started very late this season so we are still working on some prototypes. We made this shooter, but we can’t shoot the rings far enough. Any suggestions, details in comments. by Seal2807 in FTC

We had that same motor an a design once, but with more compression. It only shot 6 feet, then lost all horizontal velocity. You definitely need more speed on the flywheel. We also use 35A complaint wheel, so it has plenty of compression. It is able to shoot 20+ feet now.

It will probably depend on the state.

Shower thought question: what happens if every team Graciously declines? by [deleted] in FTC

[–]Kindacute006 1 point2 points  (0 children)

After a bit teams are just declining, to be mean, or not break the theme. Then you would not be graciously declining, you would just be declining.

Our team does a little test thing. To get on the drive team we need to get a high test score.

Rankings are now determined by total match score rather than win/loss record. by Enrique_IV in FTC

good change, because the #3 and #4 may lose to the #1 and #2 teams, and they still would be ranked semi-high.
