DEWBOT X Midknight Mayhem
1640 came to Midknight Mayhem with an all-new drive team and pit crew. The drivers were not our regular driver-in-training, but recent 8th graders just moving up from FTC 7314.
We also brought along a new 2-ball high autonomous to take advantage of an available fourth autonomous ball.
How did we do? Pretty well. Our qualification performance earned us a 4th seed spot with a (4-1-0) record. We accepted team 869's (Power Cord) invitation to join the 3rd alliance, which was filled out by teams 4361 (Roxbotix) and 191 (X-Cats). We were eliminated in the quarterfinals rubber match.
The new 2-ball autonomous never missed a shot and worked 9 times out of 9 attempts (we also successfully scored 1 of 1 single autonomous attempt).
Hosted by team 1923 (The Midknight Inventors) in Plainsboro NJ. We were Finalists last year at this competition's inaugural event.
