Cool Stop Build

So guys, its 6 days to stop build day. Who's almost finished and who's not? We, for one, are just about finished. We're just intigrating the electronics onto the chassis. Then programming gets the last 2 days when we estimate to be done. i for one believe we are gonna finish tonight.

Cheers
- Spec (Team 4063)

Re: Stop Build

Our team lacks a few side pieces of Lexan and some wiring and then we will be done.

Re: Stop Build

We are no where close to done. We mounted our ball lifter today, but we still need to assemble the shooter, our bridge lowerer, and our ball sweeper. We are working hard though, and should be ready by bag day.

Re: Stop Build

Stop build happens the day after nationals........

Anyway, we're about a week behind where we wanted to be. Oh well, it happens. Just means we'll have to squeeze in an extra week. Perhaps we'll extend our working days to 30 hours a day.

Re: Stop Build

Done but... 122 lbs. So, not done. But almost done. But, lots more programming to finish. But, ready for drive tests... almost.

Whatever.

Re: Stop Build

Drive base is done, Shooter nearly done, Conveyor system needs a bit of work still, Bridge lowering mechanism is nearly done. Pretty good shape, much better than last year for us. We're hoping to be done saturday, and head up to the scrimmage in Roswell, GA to do some testing and practice matches.

Re: Stop Build

Drive has been done for 2 weeks, Superstructure, ball conveyance, entrance, and exit manipulators have been built for a week, but we have been tweaking them. Bridge lowering device is done and needs mounting, It was prototyped but the final version has not been tested, We had to add a pneumatic to get the ball storage mechanism to work, so we need to add some more tanks. Chain to the outer wheels also went in today, up until now it has been ruining with only the middle 4 wheels working (8wd)
