Thank you to all the teams who attended our unveiling, I hope you all had a good time and it was educational.

BG i really hope you robot didn't get damaged during our little struggle over goals. All the robots impressed me.

It was alot of fun...and we thank you for inviting us!

I think the thing that the first thing we learned tonight is that a good set-up checklist is vital. (like the airline pilots go through before takeoff)

We intro'd the robot and had our left drive motor totally DEAD.....all we did was spin around the left fast when introduced, and the crowd actually went wild.....we went wild too, knowing that the left side was totally dead.

The cause of the problem.....we forgot to plug in the left side joystick!! (better it happen in a mall at a mock competition than at the real thing)

The entire BG team thanks BAE and their teams for the invitation.

PS: Good luck to all the teams there in their losing weight....it's a tough task...
