Re: What's the biggest fix you've had to do in between matches?

We had a few issues this season.

The one the sticks out in my mind was when we discovered that the screws attaching two of our CIMS to their transmissions had loosened to the point the motors were sort of flopping about. We, naturally, hadn't added any sort of access to get to those screws and removing the transmissions would have been a nightmare. Certainly not something we could do between matches.

The fix ended up being a liberal application of 5 minute epoxy and holding the motors in place while it set. It worked well enough that we never bothered fixing the fix. Quick and pretty easy fix but probably the one I had the least confidence in actually working.
