Philip & Jacob 400 with seconds to spare - FLL First Lego League 2009 Climate Connections Robot Run

Philip & Jacob run their 2nd 400 point run in a row during practice on 3/26/09. Recent improvements to the run include: 1 - closing the arm when delivering the carbon to avoid pushing it out the back of the reservoir, 2 - using an aiming jig to attain higher reliability on the bicycle and insulation pick up, 3 - adding a "jiggle" before pushing the laptop, insulation, and bicycle to the house to better center the payload, 4 - pushing the floodgate open more slowly and lowering the arm over the ice buoy sooner, 5 - opening the window on the house more slowly, 6 - using a new tool for rotating the arrows of alignment (big flappers instead of skinny arms), 7 - using a new tool to hold the levees (that hold the levees more perpendicular to the red shore) for higher reliability.
