 My nephew...loves FIRST. He wants to be an X-Cat but since he lives in Atlanta and that's a heck of a long commute for meetings I told him he probably should strive to be the next best thing: a CircuitRunner. - Koko Ed [more] |

Finding problems too late
So yesterday and today we struggled with our robot driving incorrectly and were extremely frustrated because of all the trouble we spent making it work. It was really upsetting because all the systems worked except the drive. We were using mecanum wheels, and I made certain when I put them on that they were in the X configuration.
So after alliances had already been picked, we stripped down the robot to see what the problem was, and it turns out the mecanums had been repositioned at one time into the diamond configuration. At the time it was really annoying, but now I'm having a good laugh about it.  I was just wondering if anyone else has stories of discovering problems too late, because it's nice to share silly mistakes and to learn from them.
