Our robotics team has been behind for the entire time due to our bad parts.
But for once in our robotics career, we're not very behind at all.
>SARCASM WE'RE SUPER BEHIND.

QTBOYZ conquered the MOUNTAIN of tetrahedrons and got their 80% grade.
Now we're starting work on picking up our balls
We're running into torque problems but we can muscle through with some GOOD OLD FASHIONED ENGINEER THINKING.

Arm done, charging batteries, can't wait to get our grade
today is the last day and we've barely made it.
stupid robot parts keep failing

ARM ALMOST DONE

we're almost done with the arm and ready to get our 60% grade
if this was a job we'd surely be underpaid
we're behind and stressed but our spirits say strong
we dream about being cute all night long
this robot will get completed if it takes us forever
it's been a long but enjoyable endeavor.

SUCCESS! We've found a new and working motor. Our robot should be able to actually move.
Now we just need to finish the arm and hope we can get more than a 50% on the assignment.
QTBOYZ are back in the game.

Goals for the week of 3/31 and back from spring break


  • We have to complete the arm on our square bot by Wednesday to functionally lift tetrahedrons.
  • Also finish attach our arm to our squarebot in Solidworks
  • Get back into the swing of things after coming back from a week off
Side problems: We found out that our receiver chord is part of the problem of our robot running poorly along with our batteries that don't hold a charge for very long

More Future Speak

So we finally finished the squarebot and took the basic competent test.
Woo
We're competent
Unfortunately we didn't take any pictures so here's an artists rendition
This is the best
