Re: Robot status in the crate
We just finished 99% on Monday, minus PVC flag holder, signal light, and some more signage for the robot.
However, we were practicing picking up tubes and stuff in the hallway today while waiting for the FedEx truck to come, and snapped the aluminum shaft that the arm drive sprockets were mounted to (from the couplers on the keyang motors). Not that big of a problem, it's an easy fix (in fact I'm glad it happened now than at the competition), just replace the shaft with thicker steel at the competition.
Right now we are under weight. My guess is that we should be in at 8:30AM, have the arm fixed by 9, and have the robot ready for inspection by 9:30AM-10:00 the latest, and I expect to make every practice match, hopefully.
