Week 6 - Twin Robots

  Six weeks have gone by so quickly and it's time to pack up the robot. This past Saturday, the team worked on the practice robot. The mechanical team assembled the chassis and started building the catapult. The electrical team wired up another set of electronics to be used on the robot. The programming team tuned PID loops and started the autonomous coding.
  It has been such an exciting and fun journey. Everyone was engaged with the building process and have certainly learned a lot. Parents have been a huge help! They prepared lunches and were willing to wake up early on Saturday mornings to drive students to Battle Creek. Parents, you are awesome!
  While it has been a long season, it is not quite over yet! The programming team will continue working hard to make the robot the most efficient with autonomous and vision tracking. Drive practices will start taking place where the drive team will be determined. We invite everyone to come see us at our tournaments(no need to pay!). We will be competing at Battle Creek Lakeview on March 10th - 12th, and at East Kentwood on March 31 - April 2nd. Come see our robot!
