WET610N Bridge at Competition

[TheDominis]

We used the WET610N with no issues. It worked all day Thursday, Friday, and Saturday.

We had a couple issues in Pittsburgh, but the FTA figured out that those using the new radio, WET, must be connected to the FMS first. Then the teams useing the WGA can be connected.

We ran the rest of St. Louis using the new bridge and had no trouble. Thanks for the help getting the new bridge to work.

Yeah, I am on team 2004 The Thunderducks, we were the only team at the OKC regional to use the WET610N for the entire competition. Initially we were actually disqualified for using illegal hardware!!!!!!!!

After our fearless leader and mentor had a short conversation with the lead official regarding the manual and allowed replacement parts we were determined to be in perfect line with all competition rules.

The communication problems were resolved quickly by having our team be plugged into the system and in full working order before any teams using the older gaming adapter were plugged in or on...

By the end of the regional I believe three teams were using the new adapter

Despite playing extremely well and getting relatively large amounts of seeding points in the following rounds, the setback of having essentially two less matches than any other team dropped us in rankings and any chance we had of making it to finals.

PLEASE!!! OFFICIALS BE FAMILIAR WITH THE MANUAL AND ALL COMPETITION AND ROBOT GUIDELINES TO AVOID MAKING DECISIONS THAT WILL BE UNFAIRLY DETRIMENTAL TO ANY TEAM!!!!!!
