Week 5 Update 2020

Hey everyone!

The fifth week of build season has just ended, and we made a ton of progress this week! We’ve attached our mechanisms to the robot, completed much of our programming, and tested a bit.

Our climber (lightsaber) goes up, and our shooter spits out fuel cells faster than we expected:

This upcoming week our priority is to put the electronics on the robot so that we can do testing of the mechanisms all together and to iron out the issues we’ve been having with our fuel cell storage.

We’ll be having our robot debut on Feb. 23 at 4:00 pm at the TMCC Edison campus. We will be presenting the game, demonstrating our robot, and talking about the team. There will be complimentary snacks, and you can learn specifics about our robot. It is open to the public, so we hope to see you there!
