Work Completed
Figured out problems with drivetrain.
Finished ironing on numbers onto one set of bumpers, used superglue to attach better.
Challenges
Regulator on output of the solenoid was leaking and possibly broken, causing failure to actuate.
After driving, the middle gear shaft in the gear transmission starts coming loose because the bolt thread isn't long enough to reach into the nylon.
The back right mecanum hits the gearbox when up, but it shouldn't be a problem for practice bot. Actual bot is assembled differently so its not an issue.
Work for Next Meeting
Replace middle gear bolts with longer bolts to make sure that the nut stays on all the time.
Make the red set of bumpers after straightening the wood.
On Schedule?
Should be driving by now.
