We're not really ready for it. We stripped one of our gears in our gearbox and also, autonomous mode isn't perfected yet. Right now, we are ordering another gear that's stronger than the previous but it'll take a few weeks :ahh: So when we get to pittsburgh, we'll have to rush to put them back in! We are currently using brass as a temp to test out autonomous...

Ready? What is this "ready?"

I don't understand the question. Can someone post a definition?

We're in rough shape, but I guess that's typical for us this time of year.

Ut oh... the typical 308 - create an amazing 'bot and finally get it working in time for the Championships. Sounds scary.

We will be ready although there will be a good bit of work waiting for us in the pits at our first regional. A few late nights ahead to try to finish up as much as possible. So far our bot is running great with no major problems. We just had to put it on Weight Watchers when we got back from a scrimmage on Saturday. Most of that work is complete by now though..............a lot of holes drilled, thinner material used, and lots of custom plates to hold it all together. I look forward to seeing everyone in Columbia, SC and Atlanta.

Yeah, about that...

Today was the last day that I could be there and I'm the head programmer. We tried to run the auto mode and all it did was jump a little. I hope they get it running without me...

Uhh.....
no.
I don't really think anybody would be ready for if anything could go wrong, this would be the sad, and I repeat, sad time that those terrible things would happen. :-(
