Re: Suffield Shakedown observations...
One thing 230 learned is that having the wiring for your IR receiver get caught in one of your chains is, rather surprisingly, not very good. During our first practice match we noticed almost immediately that the bot wasn't driving right, and then we noticed that there were wires hanging out, so we drove to the wall and hit the E-Stop.
Another thing we noticed is that the bumps created by the supports for the middle wall are higher than we thought, to the point that our autonomous ran into the wall after hitting them.
