A week behind. oops...

Due to a number of reasons including illness, dad taking the laptop,memory loss and a problem uploading the videos i have only just got round to doing last weeks post. sorry. also because of illness i missed this weeks meeting, so once i've been told what happened i'll do a post for that, likely it'll be left till sunday but i'll try my best

so what happened last week...
well on monday i went to see what had been done to robot the week before, also to take some pictures and here are those pictures

The new suspension

Marvin in all his glory

The modified flail, basically without the tape

Balancing the suspension

so that was monday, well part of it. we also cut out some of the aluminium and put in some more in a new place, this was to make a bit more space behind the flail for the scoop come curve come bucket thing.

The new back section

what about the meeting on wednesday...

well it started with a "test" basically we took it in turns to drive the robot around the room and see how many boxes we could store. The best we could do was 4, but it did kinda jam the flail.

after the "test" we got down to some work. mainly work on a guide for the curve bucket scoop thing and work on the ledge thing to go behind the door, for the boxes to rest on.
