Today was a great day for the team! The robot is coming along so well. Isaac was working on making our bucket and getting it attached to the robot while Zeke was working on wire management. Our goal is to have the robot fully functional by October 17th. We feel confident that our robot will be ready by then and perform well in its first outing.
Here is what Isaac had to say about the robot's progress:
"The robot made great progress today, all faults that Justin found over the weekend were corrected and we are going to be ready for a full test soon." (Isaac Slotee Team Captain)
There will be a video coming out on our Youtube Channel soon (LINKED BELOW) about the meet on the 22nd and about the final design and build. See you then!

Today was a very productive day for the team. We made amazing progress on our intake system (if you want to see a video about it, hop on over to our YouTube channel linked at the bottom of the page!) and also worked more on wire organization.
Here is what Isaac had to say about the robot's progress today:
"Today we made great progress on the intake system. We completed our chain system, which was complete with tensioners and gears. We also finished our intake slide system and determined the best way to manage our servo wires on our viper slides. We decided to use a snapback lanyard as it pulls to a fixed point unlike elastic. Overall it was a very productive day and we are ready to begin driver practice." (Isaac Slotee Team Captain)
