The 12 point check is a super important way (strategy) to use on the robot as we execute missions. It checks for any gaps or spaces between the pieces and even the tires. The tires are a critical part of the robot. Even if the wheels are a bit off, they will make the robot drift and that will get unexpected results. The team analyzed this and identified 12 different joints in the robot assembly that were vulnerable to developing such gaps. You should do the 12 point check before you run any missions with the robot. Or you can develop your own list of checks, may be make it a 100 point check if you so choose to.
We noticed that this is especially important when the robot bangs into an object on the mat. It is expected that such an impact will create more lose joints and gaps in the robot assembly.
The team observed that all our missions started getting more consistency when we adapted this 12 point check before our robot runs.
