The smallest and sometimes accidental mistakes can lead to a big improvement!

Did you use a weight to substitute the battery?

My team tried to do FTC in 2008, so we have a battery. Problem is, the battery doesn't charge. Thus the need to order new ones.

So yes, we did technically use a weight to substitute a battery.

Did you check the fuse? We honestly were stumped at how our new battery wouldnt work for a good hour.

Does this include deployment time? It seems like that will be just as important as how fast it climbs.

I think it's safe to say that this number is without deployment. It would need a rocket to go up that fast including deployment

The same thing happened to us. Eventually Figured it out though..
