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

We are about a week behind schedule. We got our base driving today, but we were hoping to do that last weekend. Our chain tensioners still aren't done, but the base is drivable. The goal is still finishing by the end of week four and it is still achievable (the manipulator shouldn't take longer than the base did); however, we'll have to work real fast on the weekends to pull it off. We found some time to mess with one of the crappy, white KoP joysticks and I think we may have it near a CH flightstick in quality of feel. The pots are still lower quality, but at least the stick feels better. Unfortunately, I messed up on my wiring of the shifting switch, which was discovered only after it was epoxied in, so I'll have to redo the mods to a different joystick.
