Robotics Update #3

We've finally completed the sorter mission!  We used a motor and a power source from the LEGO education set, and attached it to our robot, since we had no more space for motors on our robot.  This is legal by FLL rules, since they state that you can use any LEGO piece, but only 4 Ev3/NXT motors, but this doesn't count as one.  What we did with it is attached it to our robot, and move to the sorter so that it can turn it, using the treads that we added to it.  This attachment is only used to sort 4 bricks, and earns us 32 extra points.  If you would like to donate to our team, contact me at juliangrande26@gmail.com.

Provincials

Our team has made it to the provincials!  We came out second, with a score of 517 points, and we got a callback for our project and our RDES (Robotic Design Executive Summary)!  We didn't get any awards, but we did advance.  We're preparing for Provincials, and are both exited and nervous.  If you would like to donate to our team, contact me at juliangrande26@gmail.com.
