[RSN] check_in LIVE Tonight: Give Us Your Questions!

It's everyone's favorite part of the build season: the time when everyone starts to panic!



Tune in tonight at 7 PM ET for the fifth episode of check_in! Here's a recap of where all our teams are in their build season

319: Both of their robot frames are welded, and their implementation of 254's spline pathing in command base is working! Let's see how far they've come to get both of them up and driving this week.

3940: They've hit some setbacks in the design, but are ready to put the pedal to the floor. Check out a teaser of their collector on Twitter. It's no chainsaw, but it does look sick!

2337: We learned they are controlling their shooter wheels with bang-bang control, instead of a more traditional PID control loop. I'm looking forward to see how it's working!

3847: Last week, we got a full tour of their robot's finished CAD model, and they had sent parts out to be manufactured at their sheet metal sponsor. Let's see how the construction and assembly of their robot is coming!

5803: Their second year robot is looking much more complex than their creation from their stellar rookie year. Despite a rare snow-day in Seattle, they'll be joining us tonight to tell us how their week went.

148: It was sheet metal Christmas for the Robowranglers last week. After a lot of work by the team, we saw their functioning drivetrain, and it is TINY and FAST! I've also heard through the grapevine that this weeks video should be something special!

We want your questions for the teams! If you've got something you want to ask any or all of them, you can post it here on Chief Delphi, or send it to us in our Twitch chat during the show!

Watch it live at twitch.tv/FRCGameSense at 7 PM ET Tonight!

Re: [RSN] check_in LIVE Tonight: Give Us Your Questions!

5803 Apex Robotics is looking forward to tonight's show. We'll have an update from our software team, who's been hard at work on vision code and preparing to receive a fully assembled and wired practice robot this week.

We're also going to be revealing our entire design this week, with nothing off-limits. Ask about mechanism functions, design decision, fabrication methods, etc. The more questions the better!

I am legitimately afraid.
