Re: So your original robot design was.....
Our design stayed amazing on track. Not much changed from drawing board to cad to assembly. I've really noticed that our team is really great with picking a strategy and sticking with it (not to gloat or anything).
It sounds like that this strategy is inherent flawed, mainly that if there is a flaw in the strategy at the beginning, that flaw stays there. But it also carries with it huge advantages: everyone is always fully supportive of the original idea(whether they originally supported it or not) and does his/her best to make it work. And because our design is gotten by concensus, everyone has had a say in the strategy and no one should feel like their view wasn't heard. If there are people constantly second guessing the plan while we are finalizing design and building, then we get nothing done. Plus if you perfect the strategy at the beginning, you need not worry about flaws propogating.
