Re: Update 10

I have to say Kudos to FIRST, Banebots & Dr. Joe for this one... Im impressed with the speed that they came up with this solution (even if the anticipation was agonizing!) and that they are willing to admit the mistake and help teams fix it, and give them time, weight, etc to fix it.

I've heard a lot of grumbles of "oh this never should have happened", but I keep thinking back to when I was on my HS team, and we never got a gearbox or a "kitbot". Its our choice to use it, or design our own.

So thanks FIRST!
