I know I know... consistency is not our strong suit.

Very well. As many of you may have already assumed, we are not going to be building a translational drifter, but oh how we have tried. For the most part, we just kept having technical difficulties and of course the one person who had any prior experience in this design stopped communicating with us.

Since then we have been put into overdrive and are racing to redesign, rebuild, and finish. We have moved over to a twackbot model which drives normally but can be set into spin mode to brandish its 5 pound weapon. This is a big deal.

The design is a bit simple but with only spring break to work on it, it's the best the Misfits can afford.

Today is our last building day before the competition on Wednesday and I personally am confident that we will do well. The nationals are in Miami and we hope to take home the gold.
