Team's key moments
Making sparks using
a "smoke-stopper" component
During our tests, we accidentently made a short circuit because 2 components were in contact : the video transmitter and the "smoke stopper", which is supposed to prevent from short circuits. Luckily, it didn't cause any damage to our system.
Having a bug in the code 5 minute before launch
But we managed to fix it. Go watch the full rebroadcasting video !
