We broke our pickup arm and several of our Pneumatic Pistons from defense this year. Here is a video of Semi-Final Match 1-2 where our pickup completely breaks off after our last piston breaks. We had to emergency stop our robot to prevent any more damage. Even though we did break our pickup for our robot, we still had a lot of fun and had a great laugh from it. Can't wait till this weekend to have our new more robust pickup attached.

We also broke several hex bearings and chain that was also attached to our pickup.
