This past week there'e been alot of activity at the gym getting the practice robot back together. There's been a few snags but nothing we can't overcome.
Also, Ely High School has lent us their robot to practice with. We spent yesterday, (Saturday) working out the kinks on their machine. It is running and we'll be fine tuning the arm.
I think we've got a solution worked out for controlling the ball. Now it's a matter of getting it mounted on the robot when we get to Atlanta. There won't be much time to make mods up there. New this year, qualifying matches start Thursday afternoon vs. Friday morning.
UPDATE: I started what you see above about a week ago but got sidetracked. Sorry about that.
Rest assured everyone is still working hard to field a competitive robot at The Championship.
Last (for now) but not least, remember we are in fundraising mode. Talk to everyone you know, friends, relatives, friends of friends. We are doing a demo for the Wilton Manors Kiwanis Club on Wednesday in the hopes of snagging a nice donation.
