Kicking

Testing the kicker shows some problems with high-speed kicks and the soccer ball impacting the temporary bumpers (the real ones are being painted this day), due to the kick going up too much. But with the real bumpers, later on, the kicker continues to perform well.

After adding rubber padding to the kicker, it is put back on the robot, and the chains must be re-assembed. Aren't chain tools fun!
