I havenkot updated this blg for quite a long time now as I have been so busy at the moment. Last saturaday I went to the robotic games with the Robot. Since the last poast, I have made the motors slightlye better, added a sealed lead acid batteru, painted the angle metal on the sides black, made a cover and put some brighty green led's in it. At the Robotic games, The first event was sumo. I got into the semi-finals, but lost becuase on one of the rounds there was smoke coming from one of the wheels. I thaught it was from the contoller boards so I surrendered, loosing the event. In the Assualt course I didnt expect to win, as the robot was so low it got stuck on the ramp twice so the time was not very good. The football was the last event, and this is where we won. As I have lead acid batteries, they gave enough power for the whole evnt, and is probably why we won it. On one of the games we beat Jedburgh 7-0! I have edited up the video of the whole evnt and put it on youtube, here is the link:
