We have been doing some more work on the robot this evening.
We ran into problems with the towers on the back mounting two motors on each side , so we rebuilt the right side. The tower on the right is now finished, but we need to duplicate it on the other side. Also, we mounted our last wheel. We are planning to get the robot finished by Thursday so we can test it at Massey University, and then play at the scrimmage on Saturday.

Hi Everyone,
First things first I hope you all enjoyed the weekend scrimmages at MOTAT and in Palmerston North, well done to all teams that competed!
Secondly, a few important pieces of equipment went walkabout on Saturday at MOTAT. Can everyone who attended please check their gear to make sure they don’t have an extra “VEXnet Transmitter” (transmitter with the VEXnet attachment on the back). If you have it can you please flick me an email please.
We have three World Championship Qualifying events coming up Upper North Island Regional (Pinehurst), Lower North Island Regional (Massey University Wellington) and New Zealand National Competition (TelstraClear Pacific Events Centre – Auckland).

We've been building the lifter basket/sucker today. The wheel-legs are going to be mounted on slide rails, so at the start of the game they can extend. Also, we are thinking of making the base of the basket of motorised chains, with a shaft of intake rollers at the front. We have measured the front of the basket/sucker assembly to be 24" high when raised. |

After the motat scrimmage, 2921c have decided to make a new design.
We are going to make a four bar lifter on an omnidirectional base, with leg-wheels or vexplorer wheels for the sucker (similer to 2921b). |
