Re: 2080 Electrical

Beautiful,

We considered a folding box during the pre-season, but ultimately realized that although a box could fit in the robot well, it would be a pain to service if every fix required the detachment of cables, removal of the box, unfolding of the box, then eventual re-folding and re-attachment of cables.

Instead we have a drop-out plate - It takes up more space but I do believe it's easier to service.

I still love the diversity different teams come up with in design. As soon as I uncrate the robot at a regional, I always take a walk around the pits to see what the other teams came up with!
