Th build team today made a support beam to keep the robot from being so, as the describe it, "woogiddy," according to Mike Gilbertson, one of our parent mentors. They are anxiously awaiting the arrival of the new motor, so they can replace the one that blew.
Its was another slow day as far as the programming team was concerned. The uploaded a few programs and... Oh yeah! THEY TEST DROVE THE ROBOT FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER!!!! Which is a GREAT achievement for our team, and about time, too!
As for PR, we were cooped back up in our little computer cave, updating the blog and Engineering Notebook, and adding pictures to both.
The mascot is coming along great. Te head is painted, and the body is close. Its a dark purple color (The camera lies!) With a black base and silver highlighting. Soon, we're gonna have a walking robot! (and hopefully a driving one too! ;)
Buh-bye for now, but more soon to come!
