Re: Build season week 1

During the first day of Build Season, we go over all the rules, and see the best way to score points. We don't meet on Sunday but we meet on Monday and finalize what we want our robot to do, and start figuring out what mechanisms that it will take to achieve this. So for example, we decided what type of drivetrain would be required to get over the moat, the rockwall, CDF, etc. We did that for every aspect of the game. We intended to be able to do everything but when we did the math and weight came down to a concern, we abandoned the idea of scaling and we later learned that we only have about 1 to 2" of ground clearance on our robot so ramparts and the rough terrain weren't an option.
