We broke 2 welds on our pick-up arm and had to wire it together again. In elimination rounds in Auburn, be played alot of heavy hitting defense, and alot of offense too, because 2046 kept having cRio problems. Anyway, we bent all the axels for our octanem drive. We also broke the casing on one of our vex transmissions (we played finals and semi finals with a cim almost falling out of the transmission) We also broke multiple mecanem wheels in finals too. We basically spent wednesday and thursday morning fixing everything.

We've had to switch winches, while combating quick district turn around! Our pit crew also made a new manipulator in the pits, out of parts of a different one. We call it the, "flapper."

In 2013, we went through the Montreal Regional with our frisbee shooter almost never working. We only found out the problem Saturday at lunchtime : the shooter's motor was connected to a defective PWM port on the Digital Sidecar. We were ranked 33rd at the end of qualifications and thus didn't move on to the elimination round. In a rush to find the problem on Thursday, we thought that maybe there was a problem in the code, so we completely redid the robot code from A to Z, which didn't change anything. Nevertheless, we enjoyed the competition and that's all that counts ...

Well we in between our frc elimination matches had to build a new collector which took us about 2 weeks to do and had to basically get the other one wired chain put on wheels and shaft put on, replace pneumatics in about 15 minuets
