As the title states, the very first time this bot has moved! This is only with a few hours worth of coding so it's barley functional(in fact it's just partially functional, there is still no rotation!) and highly untuned. so far things look very promising. The whole point of this test to see how fast it would go and how the shifting behaved. The reason it fell apart at the end was because an untightened screw came undone from a retention shaft so the gears kind of just flew out. As you can tell the speed is great, you can clearly tell when it's in low and high gear from the sound it makes and the speed it goes. The shifting works great too but under high stress we need more pressure so we will be upgrading the 3/4" pistons to a bigger bore. With a few weeks worth of programming and tuning it should perform beautifully. Longevity is still yet to be determined but so far we are VERY happy and excited about it. This is as rough as it can possibly be, only going to improve going forward.
