Team Status Report for 3/27/2021

This week we ran into a problem with our servo where we realized it lacked the capabilities we needed to exactly turn to a degree that we wanted. This required us to change our design to a 270 degree servo and user gear ratio in order to fully spin the wheel. However, this was risk we had accounted for an we had backup parts ready to order.

Even though the servo didn’t work fully, we were still able to test our design and realized that it would be feasible. So despite having to change a few parts of our design the base concept would work and we can continue with assembling the hardware. The rest of the project is going well and we did account for there being flaws in our hardware design so the schedule is still looking good. Once we finish the hardware assembly that will the biggest risk of our project finished.
