Re: Success in D.C.?

well, nothing worked. but our team veiws this as a sucess, because for every practice round it saves us a round at richmond.

at first i had forgoten to plug the drive train back in, and the radio was pluged into the program port. the next time our driver tried to go up the 6" with the lift up and fliped our bot. our third match we had a dead battery, so everything worked fine till it ran out of juice and left us stitting there, holding the 2x ball, with not enugh power to even drive foward to cap the goal.

lessons learned:
check ALL connectors
check and replace battery before EVERY match
bring spare batterys and chargers
double check everything

hope to see you all in richmond
