1. Everyone should put 7.5A fuses in their minibot batteries if they don't want their motors to burn out.

2. Minibots change the game more than I believe they should. Under many qualification matches, if you won the race, you won the match. This also occured in MANY of the elimination matches.

3. That said, if you are going to a week 2 regional and don't have a minibot built yet, you have 5 more days to do so. USE THEM WISELY. Find out successful systems and BUILD ONE. I kid you not, it is the most important thing for you to do as an FRC team to make sure you have a working, consistent minibot. Minibot speed is great, and all, and it may make the difference in later weeks at the higher end of the competition, but many teams with "Tricked out" minibots had issues.
