What was your teams worst expierence during competition?

[Omer Huly]

Israel "Falafel" (a smaller FRC like preseason event, 1-on-1) 2012: During the finals we bumped into the opposing robot which caused our power cable from the breaker to the PDB to disconnect, and our robot was dead for the rest of the match...

Israel Offseason 2014: Finals again, one of the opposing robot bumped into which caused the cable from the cRIO to the sidecar to disconnect and after a few seconds we lost communication... (you can see it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=693J_CghzWg)

Israel Regional 2015: After about 9 out of our 10 matches with communication problems (Although inconsistent), the FTA looked at our electrical system and said that the 10 amp fuse was not inserted correctly, all the way through. After that we just laughed and pushed it harder, problem solved! We made it to the quarterfinals and had a great first match. But in the second match our chain, which connected two sprockets of the container arm, just flew out of the robot, due to the sprockets not being aligned to each other, (we had an extra spacer) and paralyzed it for the rest of the game...

Both the SBPLI and Chesapeake Regionals this year were runnig smoothly without any special problem (except for the limit switch stucking in the SBPLI finals which allowed the container arm to move down but not up again...)

2015 Championship: We run into a weird problem with a delay in our elevator (not such a big deal but still annoying). We tried to rewrite all of our code into a new lighter version, but still no success. After some experts looked at our code and electrical system they advised us to check our fuses. As I heard we lent fuses from 254 and the delay was gone! (thank you Cheesy Poofs, your fuses are megical).

All in all, I had a great time and with each break and fix I learned something new (especially about fuses)!
