Re: Week #5 - Silicon Valley Regional
I almost cried too when that robot came down. It winches up pretty slow, at least compared to the monumental speed on the way down. In a split second we were down and tipped (the first time we've ever fallen over, I suppose), and no one on our side could see anything but the bottom of the bot, so we had no idea what the damage was. Turns out when Justin and I went to get it off the field, everything looked fine; we were even still powered. Finally got that cable fixed and put up a great score in the final match. Thanks to all at the regional.
