week 3 2/22




Today Friday, February 22 we did our bots frame on Solidworks. It was a bit tricky as we are using the V5 and parts are hard to find. We ended up downloading the whole Claw-bot and making the pieces we didn't need invisible. We are not sure how effective this strategy will be in the future but Mr. Martin seems to have hope. We also began building the actual frame of our robot. We are almost done with the frame and building is quite enjoyable. The brain and battery firmware has been updated and the motors have been test run. The bot should be ready to roll by the time we finish building.
