 ====Design Decisions====
-There were none.
+We made the incorrect assumption that our drive ESCs were reversible. That was not true, and even further we did not learn this until <i>AT</i> Motorama.
 ====Calculations====
-BLANK
+We only matched the supported output ampage to the max current draw of our drive motors. Physical dimensions were the most relevent to our calculations.

 *The specialty regulator was chosen for its ability to pierce CO2 cartridges and convert their input to a standard NPT size.
 *The solenoid valve chosen was decided based on its low weight and size, but other options (such as some valves from Parker) would have been superior in terms of pressure and power.
 *The system was primarily constrained by weight and size and would've been better served with a larger piston and greater pressure.
 *NERC rules were relatively loose, but they required the use of a gauge and a method to bleed the system.

	Also upstream of the solenoid valve, the system features a bleed valve to empty the system following operation and a pressure gauge to monitor the regulator’s output. These components are connected with a variety of connectors and lengths of tubing.

 **Modifications required deviation from initial placement plan which made fitting system in chassis difficult.
 **Chassis had no systems to aid in assembly or constrain parts.
