2010 Design Review

Sunday, January 24th, 2010

Today we had our design review for our current robot concept. We invited engineers from our community to give their input on our design. We learned a lot from the discussion and will incorporate many of what we talked about into our final design.

2010 Chassis Test #3

Friday, January 15th, 2010

Our third and final prototype chassis was an eight-wheel-drive chassis. It turns as well as the six-wheel-drive prototype, and goes over much more smoothly. We have learned a lot from our prototype chassis and will be making a final decision on what we will use in competition soon!
