Build Season - Week Two Overview

1/17/2020

0 Comments

 
Starting off in the beginning of the week, we hooked up our shooting prototype to a bag motor to test if it would shoot the ball. We were able to launch it about 15 feet which is a good start, but that still leaves 15 to go. We were then able to test the shooting mechanism with a Neo motor, which worked wonderful! When it comes to our chassis, we were able to get it fully painted black (as pictured below) and assembled the four quarters of the drivetrain and run it at full speed! Getting into the middle of the week, Wednesday we spent most of the day finding and ordering certain parts that we had trouble finding for previous orders. Work was then done on our peanut bot trying to drive the front wheels with a chain rather than belts. This is a bot being built as a side project for when we have local events here in Buchanan! Thursday, more work was done on button and shirt designs, and we have our seasons bot almost completely assembled! Finishing off, we hooked up the Demo Board to the robot, then tested the drivetrain against a "boundary" and inch tall, and it drove over perfectly! There was much progress that was made, but there is still a long way to go!
