Re: pic: 340 Jeep Bot

It was such a fun project. We had high expectations for it... ie) working windshield wipers, new paint job, working horn. This, as we should have known, weren't going to get done. We had the windshield wipers working on a 90 degree pneumatic, but took them off due to space and time restraints.
We will get the transmissions going again. We're looking into the servo shifters to eliminate the whole pneumatics systems.
After we get the basics fixed, we'll look into the new paint job and all the other accessories.
It was fun driving the Jeep, when it actually worked. The harvester worked like a champ. We scored 24 points in one of our matches all by ourselves, due to 1567 and 2567 both not working.
One time during autonomous, a team blasted across the field and hit our Jeep, which was standing still. Our drive team yelled across the field.."WATCH THE PAINT!!! I HOPE YOU HAVE INSURANCE!!!"
It was cool to have more fun then you normally would with a robot.
