graveyard

team 121 has a robot grave yard. this is an area that is alot higher than our working area. its like an attic. every robot is left somewhat intact.

this year after the robot was shipped we looted the old bots and made a mini me of sorts. it only took 8 hours to make. went forwards and backwards and moved a soccer ball. it was pretty cool.

some "professional" engineer helped us wire it. he accidently wired the power into the fuse box into the controller out to light then back to controller and then battery. needless to say the controller went up in smoke. wires were melted together. but the wierd thing is the controller still worked. his excuse for wiring it was that the fuse box was confusing
