Week 7



3/18/19
We decided the big wheels would help us make a bigger and better robot so we are trying to find the best way possible to attach them and get the robot running.
    


3/20/19
We found that to use the bigger wheels we are going to need a different base lay out so instead of working around what we have we will be scrapping the robot and basically just making a new one.

week 6

3/11/19
Our goals for this week is to continue to modify our robot. We put on two small wheelie bars on the back and have coded the arm of our robot and have added reinforcements to our claw but it seem to be too heavy for the motor too keep up.


3/13/19
Today we a have decided to put on the big boy wheels. We have to make a whole new base to accommodate for the length of the wheels. We also have to add 2 small gear o the front and the back on each side which will give us more speed. This project might take a few days but i will be worth it.

Week 5

3/4/19
        We Have gotten the basis done for our figure 8, but the timing in rotation and moving forward is the tiniest bit off so we have inconsistent runs when it goes to repeat the drive forward actions. we will continue to tweak it till we get it right! 


      


           3/8/19 - We have tweaked the coding alot and have a really good basis for the figure 8. we have had 2 successful figure 8's but it is still a tiny inconsistent so until we get 4 successful runs in a row we will continue to change the coding.
