Plainly Iron: bi-weekly blog Issue XI

Over the past two days, the 25th and the 26th, the Iron Plainsmen Robotics team has been able to check off several tasks on their to-do list. This week has been full of productivity.

On Wednesday, the team worked on the full intake assembly and the cables and heat shrink necessary for the competition batteries.

On Thursday, the team used the CNC router to cut out new sides for the intake and secured them to the robot. After ensuring the climbing mechanism would allow the robot to hang properly, the team worked on wiring the motors for the climber.

Even though the team has found many issues with the robot this week, they continue to iron out those issues and improve their robot everyday. The Plainsmen Robotics team works harder every day, and is more excited every day for the coming competition!
