Re: Team 48 does a flip (video)!

You are going to want to strap your battery in, we didn't at the time (it was on our list of things to do that day) and the battery fell to the floor. Unfortunately it pulled one of the terminals out of the Anderson connector and our drive team didn't catch that in time for our second practice round so we pulled it back to the pits. We had a broken flag holder, and a bent piece of steel which we bent right back. No harm no foul, shouldn't happen again because the robot has its bumpers and its ramps bringing it up to weight, and our driver has some experience under his belt now, this was his first time driving at an actual event. Needless to say, he was quite shaken after this match, but by the end of the regional he was more comfortable with high gear.
