Drive Train: Today we fixed the gearbox problems we were having, and the drive train gearboxes seem to be working a lot better! The problem that we fixed was with the right gearbox. We had a bolt that was loctited using red loctite, but it was only bolted in halfway. We had to break the red loctite and unscrew the bolt and rebolt everything together. We also replaced the aluminum pinions on the drive train gearboxes with steel pinions, so we could use the aluminum pinions on our mechanisms.

Intake: We mounted the versaplanetary on our intake and realized that the tension from the pulleys was bad for the bot. We are currently working on fixing this issue.

Tigger: We started making the gearbox and attacthing it to a piece of 1x2 for Tigger. We were having a few spacer and bearing issues and are we are currently trying to resolve this issue.

Indexer: We adjusted the shaft lengths and put pulleys at the right height, and started working on the gearbox.
