Final Post

These past few weeks have been pretty insane. We have been up and down and back and forth from design to challenge to blog and grades. We have been ahead and behind in the challenges with great and terrible ideas. Overall I loved building robots and working with my group.

Week 13 Accomplishments

This week we ran our robot 10 more times and we weighed it, it weighed in at 59.8 lbs.

Week 13 Goals

This week we are to finish all of our work and do ten more tug of war trials.

Week 12 Accomplishments

This week we played tug of war and our record was 7-3 with our losses to Cinderella, a team of 3 robots, and a game when our gears popped out.

Week 12 Goals

This week we are to start the tug of war and complete our robot.We have a new idea for a robot with a wench to pull a rope and a cinder-block for extra weight.

Week 11 Accomplishments

This week we took apart and built our robot several times to see what design was best.

Week 11 Goals

This week we want to complete our tug of war robot and do the challenge as soon  as possible.

The tug of War

This challenge we are doing right now is a tug of war.

This is how you connect the wire to your robot.

This is the wire you will use. You will start with the tip of the flag on the red tape  and to win you can either pull the opponents robot's wheels to the red tape or have this tip of the flag on our side of the tape at the end of the 10 second round, must be noticeably over the tape.

Week 10 Accomplishments

This week we have almost completed our next robot for tug of war now we just need to attach the brain.
