The build season is slowly coming to an end, I just wanted to see how many teams are done and testing, if not how far along are you?

We are about a few days from “finish” with all mechanical components, but we still have a lot of work to do on code. We will also have to mount some sensors.
about to finish
We already stated testing few mechanisms… a few tweaks and we’re done
and then 2nd bot (easier once you’re sure what you want :D)
Miss Daisy is up and running without her hopper.
Hmm…it sounds sort of improper when I put it like that.
Build season winding down?
I would imagine there are not a few teams that do more in the last week than in the first 5. :ahh:
Some teams are just getting around to starting robot #2!
Practice robot is done and in the books. It’s now in the programming and strategy sub-teams’ hands for autonomous development and practice.
Our team is so far behind. We still have to build most of the robot
All systems are up and running for 1923. We’re in the run, practice, break, fix phase. I’m really trying to get it into my students’ heads that engineering is a frustrating and rewarding iterative process. We have paneling, weight reduction, and cleanup left.
Don’t tell me that, I am successfully tricking myself into thinking we have more time… I have an entire white board full of software we have to write still
Same with us. Our electrical team is REALLY SLOW with placing electronic on the base, and we still are fabricating the stuff for the shooter. Hopefully we can have it done Wednesday, and have a second robot to test while we wait for our first regional. And we still need to build our trailer and crate.
Yep, life is good.
Slowly?!? From my perspective it is moving toward us at an ever increasing speed!!! :ahh: So much to do, so little time! And it isn’t just the robot! We have a rookie team to watch out for, Rochester Rally to put together, a crate to finish, Chairman’s entry to perfect, trip plans to finalize…how does the end of build season sneak up on us every year!!! :yikes:
You can say that again!
No, for us things are winding up and I’m getting that panic feeling.
The Build season winding down!?!?!?! That means it’s almost shipping time.
NNNNOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooooo
i feel the 2am build nights coming.:ahh:
Robot completed; but, undergoing a constant process of revision and repair.
same here. we still are not done with everything but, bot #2 is going to be cake:cool:
If you put the 2AM nights at the beginning, you find yourself a LOT happier this time of year. All smiles here in G-ville.
we should have the drivetrain up and running by the end of tonight, hmmm i feel behind, but this happens to us every year, last year our robot shipped and couldn’t even move, so we will be ahead.
Is there anyone that will be going with minimal complete robot practice time, like us?
We will likely end up in this scenario as well, based on where we are right now. We are hoping to have our turret weight low enough to have it withheld along with some electronics components so we can do the software tweaks of it in the time until our (week 6) regional.
