Build Season Week 2 Update

[metaslider id=3091]

 

 

During the second week of build season, our team accomplished a multitude of tasks getting us closer to a completed robot. Our build team finished prototyping the robot along with assembling a lift kit, which is a powered mechanism that can raise game components up over seven feet in the air. Our drivetrain frame was completed and we are beginning to mount wheels onto it. The programming team worked on a gyro code which helps stabilize the robot.

Stay tuned for the following weekly updates. 

Thanks again for your support this year!
