Re: Robot status in the crate

As it stands, to be ready for inspection, we need to finish the wiring on a Victor that had to be replaced (I suspect the old one had a loose connection internally), connect most of the sensors (They are all wired, just not connected), bolt down a pot, fix a leak in our pneumatic system (which we've already located), and mount the flag holder. Going off past history, I expect that we will probably have to deburr a few things and do minor little touch ups here and there, but I suspect we'll have all that done relatively quickly. (maybe an hour or a little more) The big work on Thursday will be setting the 17 gains for the various feedback control loops on the robot. I expect we'll be primarily defensive in our first practice match, but we should have the arm at least operational, even though it won't be at 100%, for the second. Maybe by the last one we'll have our autonomous working.
