Re: Your theory vs. your capability

This has been a strange year. Following are some of the reasons:
Every time we weighed our bot is was just barely under weight.
What we said we would build and what we built are the same.
We only had to design one electronics layout (normally 2 or 3).

I'm not saying that there were no issues, that's not reality, but we were able to overcome them without major redesign.
