 Mentors may not be the direct focus of FIRST, but they are just as involved as students are. They play a pivotal role in the success of FIRST and of the success of every team. - Dan Petrovic [more] |

Re: pic: Fixing the Winch on the field
What happened at BAE was:
After the bar had been lowered to get the robots off of the bar, then because there was no weight on the bar as it was going back up, the winch cable loosened up and wrapped around the axle on the winch drum, casueing everything to lock up. They had to lift off the platform in order to reach the winch drum, from then on we used hooks and hung on the bar from both sides on the way up and the way down so there was always even pressure on the bar. -Aaron
