Since 8 p.m. Wednesday evening CESAR robot is a well shaped, fully functional, fast and fun system. All parts of the communication, control and robot system are perfectly working. I'm SO glad =) (check previous posts, especially YouTube-Video about the accident).
It seems that this was the last 18 hour day for the next three weeks. Time to relax and prepare for the big challenge. Good luck to our ambitious competitors:

- Jacobs University
- Universidad Politecnica de Madrid
- Oulun Yliopisto (University of Oulu)
- Università di Pisa
- Scuola Superiore Sant'Anna
- Surrey Space Centre, University of Surrey
- Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (Eidgenössische Technische Hochschule - ETH)

(For the new readers: challenge announcement )
