We're ahead of schedule, but that still puts our projected "finish robot" date about two weeks after ship
Our concept is all but picked out. Our drivetrain is out for fabrication and should be done on Friday. We should get a gripper prototype or two in this next week. Now is the hard part though - where our resources bite us. We're under a restricted schedule that only meets Monday-Friday, 10 hours a week. We're shipping our robot the Friday before ship because of a school break. So "ahead of schedule" isn't fast enough.
