Our 2013 robot took a hard fall from the tower during a practice match at St. Louis.

We shattered our frisbee loader/shooter cover and bent/broke plenty of welds in our frame/superstructure. We also broke all of our wheels, and bent some pneumatics cylinders somehow. The repairs were completed just in time for the next match, including unwarping the frame with a special tool that used a car jack to pull the frame back to being square, but we found out on the walk to the fields that the power distribution board's 5 V, 12 V, and 24V supply had all been damaged when the battery had crashed into it. After grabbing a spare board, I only had around five minutes to swap the board. We didn't have enough time to connect everything, but we still made our autonomous shots!
