The GCRS2 competition is tomorrow. Both our bots are ...finished, I guess. We've had to make some compromises. Driving them around today beating up old computer parts and a joke-chassis I bolted together was pretty fun. Conundrum can hit pretty hard, but I've been having glitchy radio problems. Apparently, Spektrum screwed up the programming on their AR6100 chip, and a lot of people are having problems with it - including ME. This is the second one I've put in (I had to replace the first after it stopped connecting AND binding to ANYTHING), so it's brand new, and giving me problems. I spin up my drum for a few seconds, start driving, and I lose radio signal, the drum stays on for a second or two, then shuts off. Sometimes the bot spins in place (one wheel forwards, one wheel back). It's really frustrating. And then, sometimes it works fine!
We'll see how things go tomorrow...
This is what I managed to document until my camera died (before we started doing all the really good stuff, of course...)
