More Prototyping

This week nothing new happened but I did continue prototyping. I have to experiment with a lot of  new ideas because the next stage of the completion will be a million times harder. The other teams at that event will also have qualified and it isn't till April so they will be a lot better. This week I tried an intake idea to quickly get the balls but that didn't work. I also tried to do a one wheel fly wheel (normally two wheels spinning in opposite directions that shoot a ball) but that didn't seem to work that well either. I started working on another idea where the balls are picked up in a similar way to my other robot except that that is also the storage. From there it could be lifted up by a sort of arm and as it tilts the back will become a ramp and the would fall into the goal. There's a lot of prototyping ahead so will see what the robot transforms into.
