Re: Anyone Done Yet?

We aren't done. My guess is the robot won't be done until mid-next week, like usual. Poor planning usually is the result for this, but this year it's been partially do to leadership problems (we have 5 club officers; only 2 of the 5 that started this year still remain officers). Some too much work, some not really motivated, etc., etc.

We do have our whole design done though, and have all components at least started. The problem is putting them all together and giving us enough time to get the code working with the robot.

1978 hasn't built anything yet (Barry Goldwater High School from nearby here in Arizona). Their kit arrived 3 weeks late (last week Monday) due to registration problems, and was missing a few parts, plus they did not have enough funds to buy basically any additional parts for the robot. We've given them some materials to help, and it looks like they have a design reasonable to finish in the time they have. We'll help them as needed; I hope they get something built in time for competition.
