Death Match Approaches...

Monday, March 5. I would like to formally apologize to our speed controls for being upset with them. It was our receiver that was the problem! With a new one, we should be good to go. Competition begins tomorrow, and C.A.N has a new paint job!! I'm getting excited!

OH, SPEED CONTROLS!!!

Friday-Sunday. I worked on C.A.N all Friday and all weekend. My conclusion, the speed controls are EVIL!!! They only turn on 5% of the time. On the bright side, everything moves smoothly in our robot. The problem is we can't move it with our remote. I gave C.A.N a sweet paint job though. I hope to have more pictures up soon, but right now it is 1:02 AM and I really need to un-fry my brain from dissecting my robot.

Oh, Speed Controls...

Wednesday and Thursday. So, our robot is working perfectly!!!!!... April Fool's! Our speed controls won't turn on!!! Other than that, our robot only needs to be attached to the wheels and it'll be done. But there's no point in that if it won't move in the first place. I'm at a loss at what to do.
