How do you hook up two cameras to the RC? Do you just use the program port for one, or have you put together some kind of multiplexer?

Me: "We'll find out, won't we."

After the match's autonomous period ends:
Me: "Well, the basic control system still responds. That's always good."
Both: *further laughter*
