Maybe I missed it - but is each team supposed to bring their gamepiece?

[Jon Stratis]

I haven't heard either way... I would urge everyone to bring theirs, just in case. Worst case, it sits in your pit for the day then goes home.

Just two days left until competition! Can't wait to see all of the familiar faces! Good luck to everyone participating.

[Shrub]

This is going to be really exciting. I can't wait to see all these great teams *____*

[Caleb Sykes]

I count 12 teams that attended the MSHSL State Championship that are coming to MRI, including all 3 current State Champions. Eliminations are certainly going to be very exciting!

And those 3 teams are bringing 5 robots

I don't have a cRIO handy, but if you open up either of those and there's a /var/log directory, I would start there.

Got a new DSC, RSL is better looking now, but still no motor movement. I could not find any useful logs on the cRio when I FTP'd to it.

Working on it right now....

Partial success ! Current best guess is that we have three bad victor 888's (out of 8).

Progress, nice Try swapping the PWMs for the victors before removing them. Since you have a new DSC, we need to track it down to the PWM cable, victor, wiring, or motor. Keep swapping out pieces of the puzzle. Don't toss out the victors that you swap out quite yet. Most of the time when you are swapping motor controllers you are under a time crunch (prepping for or at a competition). Hang on to and test the controllers when you have adequate time to fully test and possibly fix them (for off-season use only)
It's surprising how many speed controllers over the years I have found to be operational that were initially deemed "bad".

How is everyone coming along in getting their bots up and running?

[Shrub]

3883 is a-ok! We are actually presenting our robot at our schools pep rally.

Will 2175 and 2052's practice bots be competing in matches?

KrawlingKnight, Team 8052's summer project "Nymph" will be competing.
I'm not sure if that answers your question or creates more.

2052 has never actually built a practice robot before. This is a completely new robot that we built as a summer project. Since we generally do mecanum we decided to do a 6 CIM shifting WCD robot for the summer project to get some experience with that. We did use our spare pickup arm though so our method of ball pickup is the same as our competition bot. We are entering it as a separate robot so yes, it will be in matches.
