Re: What hath we wrought? 2016 Horror Stories
I know that all the competitions I went to in North Carolina they put all the small parts from the robots that came apart in a table off the field. Also, I witnessed a robot smoking after the match ended and the robot tried to stay up for the scale.
For our team, we didn't protect our mini-cims and the end where the wires come out of popped off. I believe this happened because of the step to keep the robots on for the capture. We ended up putting tape on it to keep it together, and it still worked.
Many a time I saw the zipties pop off and lexan decorations forcefully removed from the sally port by too-wide robots.
