Re: Most damage sustained

We have not ever sustained damage that put us out of competition for the entire event. Yes we have had some easy to repair metal bent but one of the kids jobs is to design the robot to sustain the games environment. We have bent axles when that was an easy fix.

I believe this is all part of the game and developing you strategy of how to play the game. In real world one must look at all the variables when developing a product and incorporate them into the design.

This years game with no defense is rather boring and I feel does not challenge the kids to build for a bad environment.

We have always protected our electronics even this year under polycarb so if a tote falls it will not damage them.
