Today, we attached a ramp to our base meaning we can now elevate other robots to get 25 points! :D The shooter is going pretty well, but there are a few engineering issues like motor count, the required amount of strength required to stretch the rubber bands for back enough and space. We also attacked rubber pads to our ramp to provide extra friction and make it easier for other robots to go up easier. It now looks like a tank! However, because our shooter is having a lot of issues we might do a wheel-based shooter at the same time as a plan B. We'll come tomorrow to keep working on our robot, completing the base and hopefully getting a new ball collector for our robot's new horizontal structure.
