Last year, we broke 2 shafts on our arm at West Michigan. Those of you that went there may remember our spectacular fall from the bridge Friday during our second practice round (they played it on the highlights video at the party 20,000 times!). When we tried to use the arm to stand our robot back up, we broke the keyed 3/8 shaft on our "elbow." We did it again in our last qualifying match. We never solved the problem, but with some driving adjustments, we never broke another shaft.
