Team 34 (from Alabama) is looking forward to attending the Davis Sacramento Regional. Unfortunately, we are not able to carry as much tooling and materials as we would like due to shipping and airline weight restrictions.

We're hoping another gracious team will let us borrow a cordless drill long enough to uncrate our 'bot. :)

We got you covered Ed - it is the least we could do for all the great 3-D models you've helped us out with!!

Do you guys all have aim, or something? maybe we could work something out. Anyways, we ruled out STAMP, and we're just going to use the FSN. This year, we have 10 people on our scouting team with 6 people rotating every 3 hours or so except our webmasters(me and my friend!) will be there almost the whole time we are the camera men also. During the other free time, we'll have the other 4 scouts go around personally and write down thier thoughts, and breif us at the end of the day. Anyways, c u guys in 3 days?

So Ed, are you going to be in Sacramento too, since it would like to thank you in person for all the great part models you have made over the years.

Yep, I'll be there. I'll be one of the inspectors on Thursday & Friday. I'm easy to spot because I always wear a Khaki Jungle Hat and I tend to hang around team 34's pit. :D

Thanks to all of you in advance for your help & support. This is the first time our team has ever flown to a regional. See 'ya in a couple days.

Team 1726 would be happy to loan our cordless drill. Just come by and see us.

Ed,

If you guys need anything, team 1072 is always there for you guys. We are bringing a drill press, radial arm saw, band saw, grinder, and a bunch of pneumatic power tools. We have quite an arsenal.

And a note... Team 1072's drivetrain will be fully operational at SAC. yay... no more driving in circles. We're re-sprocketing and re-chaining the whole thing. Down with inefficiency! Horay for 17 fps.

Just as a note, if I recall correctly from the meeting, UC Davis will be allowing the use of their shops for robot repair. Robots will be shuttled back and forth via golf cart/mini trucks to the shop. Can you confirm this Doug? I don't know if any of this has changed or not since the last meeting I attended.

Team 100 will be there.

I'll also bring my hacked linksys router for FSN (if you guys want to use it), I ran it at SVR but never really tested the broadcasting range (ran it at 50mw over the default 28mw). WiFi coverage with this router is no problem at all (since I can max out the transmit signal power to 251mw).

My concern with using that router is that it was not serving DHCP at all on Saturday at SVR. That essentially made FSN useless. Please bring it as a backup to the one I already have configured. If mine doesn't cut it, we'll try yours, but be prepared to provide admin. access to the router.

I don't quite understand, it was serving DHCP, there isn't really other common way to run a router, except for ad-hoc (which I'll vouch, wasn't the case).
To get to FSN you had to connect to and IP which had port 80 forwarded. Unless you have two machines set up for DNS hosting along with your server, there isn't a way to access a server within the LAN via easy-to-remember domain name, if that's what you're talking about.
Correct me if I'm wrong, which I think I probably am.

I remember it worked on friday, and then all day saturday it wasn't serving DHCP. Caspar would know more about it, but I think he couldn't open a port.

NoodleKnight 22-03-2006 00:37

Re: 2006 Davis Sacramento Regional
 
Hmm, I never knew it stopped serving DHCP, I did remember it stopped working on Friday (not sure why), but I checked the config and it was all correct and the other FSN computer was able to connect and access the server.

Caspar was trying to get a hold of you, but apparently your own 'bot took precedence...sheesh
