MAR Quarterfinal 1-3

Together with alliance partners 2729 (Storm Robotics - alliance captain, from Lenape and Cherokee High Schools in Marlton & Medford, NJ) and 2590 (Nemesis, from Robbinsville High School, Robbinsville, NJ), we won the MAR Championship!

We had difficulties during qualifications. Our shooter lost its mojo for most of the qual matches and the problem was only resolved at the end of day 2 when we fixed a robot-wide voltage control issue and replaced the shooter motor. We also suffered from communication drop-out several times, both due to the voltage failures and likely due to a disconnect internal to the router. The cRio was isolated, shooter motor switched, and router and power cable replaced before alliance selection. Our climbing system was also unreliable, which we are aiming to resolve for Worlds.

On the other hand, our drive team was phenomenal and our scouting awesome. The new anti-backdrive mechanism on our caterpillar drive worked flawlessly on the practice field and in our one 10 point climb.
