Our robot was a work in progress throughout the eliminations. We added 20 pounds of steel at the beginning, which threw off the drivetrain, so we then added tread to our untreaded wheels. In Finals 1, I think it was, we lost a chain. Literally. They couldn't even find it on the field. We replaced it, and added zip tie tensioners to the chains. I think what happened was that they were too tight, as the robot would take a long time to react to the drive joysticks. We should have it all fixed for GTR.
Thank you to 1114 and 2056 for helping us through this. Without your help, we would have been unable to move.
