Excitement is high and hopes and aspirations are abound this year. This is the smoothest transition we have made to Peachtree! Last year during Breakaway, we had little problems each match that caused our robot to malfunction. In a sense, it was very heavy on dumb luck. This year we started off very well, having a consistent autonomous linetracker, gripper, and drive system. One thing that we are looking at is consistent checks. Tomorrow morning our coder is immediately checking the code, and the rest of the team is making a full system check.
As soon as that's done, we're checking every part of the robot for loose parts, and possibly damaged pieces. One thing we learned from last year: prepare and anticipate. At the end of the day we were ranked number 1, which gives us first choice. We are considering to choose a few teams, but as expected, they are also ranked very high.
Tomorrow, we hope we can keep our lead in the regional, and hopefully win another regional!
