This week we ran into problems. We realized that our design had some major flaws, such as our gears didn't fit onto the motor shaft or rotate with our axle. We had to design a few new components that luckily worked with our current design. We were able to design the solutions, but were not able to manufacture them in time for MS7. Unfortunately, our bot is still not functioning. We were however able to assemble most of our MCM. Even though it didn't work as we wanted, what we have created thus far is an exciting accomplishment for everyone in the group : ] We anxiously await the day when our bot is finished and working.
This next week we have a ton to do, even more than we had originally anticipated because of our modifications. Considering that we have almost no time for error, hopefully everything will run smoothly this week. If we are able to work according to schedule, our bot should be done by Friday.
Here's a sneak peak:
