Re: How goes the build?
The core mechanisms work well enough for week 4. Still waiting on the results of prototyping to determine some extra appendages. Meanwhile, the programing department is (at my egging) having fun with gyros and PID loops. The desired target is at least one full week of drive practice with a finished robot. We don't have the cash for a practice bot this year, so every singe day counts.
P.S. Has anyone come up with an elegant solution to the gyro roll-over problem (going from 180 immediately to -179 or 0 to 360 and spinning in circles)?
