Pondering pixels, memorizing scoring rules, building early lifts and CAD training with Dr Dan from @synergetix.inc First Aid and CPR re-certification night in the HideyHub. The new feedback CPR dolls are cool. It’s nice having the lights to let you know if you’re doing it correctly. Technology at work! Progress is happening! Week one is in the bag! Pascal drives so smooth and fast! Other than the hassle of sizing it, we are really liking chain for the drivetrain. We have used bevel gears for years, we won’t be going back. Everyone is helping with the McQueen tear down, sorting parts and designing/assembling Pascal. Rookie Marin is jumping in with both feet learning to program. Next weekend we’ll break him down again and reassemble with custom side panel prototypes. Everyone needs a grounding strap for this game. The static is no joke! This coming week’s schedule includes CPR training and CAD class with Dr Dan @synergetix.inc We’ve been hard at work in the lab since kickoff! Pascal drives and is waiting on his prototype custom side panels. All other moving components have design plans and are currently in prototyping. Rookies Marin and Lillie got to be the first to drive Pascal. 🦎🎨🎸=🤖 #SENIORSUNDAY (yesterday, oopsies) - Our RoboScout Squad seniors Zia and @ugh.kd, ready to lead the team and totally hyped for #CENTERSTAGE, their last FTC season in @first_official_ 🏎️🏎️🏎️🎨🎨🎨 🎞️🎨💃🏼🎹 The @roboscoutsquad18240 rookie members and Dozette are ready to roll out the red carpet and take #CENTERSTAGE, are you?
