Re: How far are teams right now? Behind Schedual?

We have the drivetrain ready, but there was a slight glitch in the rack-and-pinion (I think that's it) steering system. Should be done on Friday.

OI has been determined and is in production alongside the robot. It's unique, that's for certain.

Programmers are still waiting on at least a basic chassis, which when they do have one can start working on code. Two of the three are learning during the build, so they can have something to do. The drivers will start practicing at this point. Then the engineers/builders will continue working on the manipulator.

All-in-all I'd say that we are a tad bit behind schedule, but not too far.
