Re: Should technical mentors be allowed to help repair robots during finals?
I remember the mass chaos that happened last year at the Newton Feild Finals when Hot's cable snapped and they came crashing down from 10 feet up. I don't think there was a problem letting other's join the group to get the work done. We were sooooo far away from the pits that the work had to get done there.
Similar thing happened last year at Buckeye when one of our 2 hooks broke. It was weird. We were all up in the stands and as soon as it happened about 5 kids jumped out of their seats and ran (safely) back to the pits to get the tools and fix the robot.
With the game as fierce as it will be at Championship, and the robots having played in more matches than usual, I believe it will be important for teams to have pit crew members help out with repairs on Field.
