An excellent example: Banebot transmissions. I'm not sure if your team used them this year, but many teams did. Had teams not discussed the problem, there would be many, many teams with broken robots. And that wouldn't be very inspiring, eh?
Well I very much agree with the problems that banebots has been causing teams. Our robot has been using the banebots 2-to-1 trannys and all they can do is give us headaches. They have broken 5 times, and The last one happened during the semi-finals of a match.. We broke out pits on the field, and in the end, were not able to compete any more. However, THANK YOU team voltage for subbing for us, giving us 2nd place.
