General Setup - June 07, 2023

Introduction

Today, we held our second team meeting of the year, where we utilized the agenda to outline a plan for the upcoming week. Our objective is to stay on track towards the development of the beginning of a robot.

Our goal is to begin the robot this week and to have a working chassis ready for the upcoming scrimmage next Thursday. This will allow us to compete against the other teams in our club, and take data to see if it is an effective drivetrain. Not only that but look at other teams drive trains for inspiration.
