Re: Concerning Whistleblowing

Oh, you should go to an inspector.

We were team XXX with the tape on the radio. We were getting wicked static build up on the robot, and our radio waqs dropping out. So we taped up the exposed metal as a test. Didn't do much. We moved the radio, and it worked better.

We shipped the robot with the tape on. Did all of GLR with the blue tape.

Part way through Wisconson Al asked us what it was for, the students told him static prevention (which is why it was put on, even if it didn't work.) But we had no issues taking it off. No biggie. It's all good.

But I say tell an inspector. WHY? Because the students will listen to an inspector. They are an inspector. Our student's wouldn't do something wrong on purpose. They thought it was legal. If someone random just came up and said they had to change, the students would probably ignore them. An inspector is right. If people started changing based on random peoples input, next thing you will know is that people will be telling teams they only got 2 small CIM motors, and they can only use 2.
