We are a little over a week into build season, and here is a summary of what’s been accomplished:
- We have a chassis built, and an electronics board designed for it
- The DS software and the Eclipse plugins have been updated
- A prototype gear holder has been built and tested
- Prototypes of a rope climber, fuel pickup, and low goal dumper, and shooter are in progress
- A CAD model of the complete robot has been started
Next steps:
- Update motor controller firmware
- Fabricate electronics board
- Finish prototype mechanisms
- Get gear holder made out of sheet metal
- CAD mechanisms and figure out how to fit them onto the robot
