"FRC lessons"

  • CJ and Laura went to learn and complete tasks in FRC. CJ watched a presentation on CAD and tasks in a FRC build season. He learned about how to use CAD to create complex parts and assemblies. Additionally, he learned on what to do after a game release and how to use the 6 weeks given in FRC efficiently. The knowledge gathered from the presentation gave him ideas on completing the robot efficiently in a reasonable time period.
Mounting IR beacon sensor
  • Josh worked to mount the sensor for the IR beacon so it would stay in the 18in. box. he completed this task with around 1/2 inches to spare.
reverse gabber servo motors
  • Josh had to work with Laura to reverse the servo motors due to the wires connecting it to the controller were on the outside.
Change battery position
  • Josh changed the battery position from the top of the robot to the back due to the top-heaviness when it was on top.
mounted servo controller
  • Josh mounted the servo controller next to the battery.
mounted power switch plate that shows that it is a power switch
  • josh cut plastic then attached it to the top next to the power switch.
