Changes of robots in the off-season...
Well the time of "unofficial" FIRST comps has arrived (off season). Our team (11) has just come back from a wonderful experience at PARC. We had an incredible time, but our robot didnt. During a match our robot went "suicidal" in auto mode. Our pistons (able to lift 200 lbs.) shot into our robot, and umm to say the least broke our entire hanging mechanism. Sooo, i was wondering, given the sad shape of our arm, and the amount of time it would take to fix it, could building a new arm be acceptable? Of course it wont be as complex as our first, but it would still be functional...Feel free to voice your opinion!
