This is a collection of pictures and videos of devices that placed in the top ten at the 2018 National Tournament at Colorado State University. '''Feel free to add more pictures and/or videos of devices. If possible, please include a description about your device.''' Because everyone benefits when we share, devices that did not place in the top ten are sometimes allowed.

The Best of Nationals pages highlight the best devices for building events from recent national tournaments. All photos and videos of devices on these pages are submitted by users.

Fourth Place
This picture was submitted by Adi1008, who competed in Hovercraft with Justin72835 for Seven Lakes High School. Our device had runs of 12.6 seconds using 5 pennies and 3.9 seconds using 16 pennies, ultimately getting a build score of ~40.32/42. The device was calibrated mainly by listening to the pitch of the motor when it was turned on (higher pitch = faster device)
