Re: Great Lakes Regional 08
There were three seperate issues with our robot. The issue with the Hybrid was something we have been trying to resolve all weekend. It is very involved and cant be reproduce in the pits. The problem only occurs during match play and occurs on occasion. Of course during the elims it occured over %50 of the time. We do not have an explaination for the problem at this time. The first match of the finals the hybrid issues presented. During tele mode the robot made it to the first overpass and then was dead in the water. A bad battery connection was blamed. During the third match we position the robot in lane 2 for Hybrid. The robot did not move in either Hybrid or tele. That issue was a loose main cable going to the terminal block. We could do nothing to get it back. Even after our alliance parters nudged us a few times. (which was a brilliant move BTW, Thank you). I hope this answers your questions. The GLR was a great time. Lots of great teams and great alliances. I thought for certain the 27, 469, 1646 alliance was going all the way. The event took a very interesting turn when they were defeated. In the end the best alliance won. Congratulations teams 67, 326 and 503. Good luck in Atlanta.
