Drivetrain
Drivetrain is complete. Spacers for sprockets are here and need to be put on.
Arm/Manipulator
All the arm parts and most of the tower parts are out for manufacture. Somewhere between 1 and 20 small details need to be figured out for manufacture, but those should be done soon. Mounting points for deployer need to be integrated. Current weight for arm/superstructure/chain: 25. Current weight for manipulator: 5.
Minibot/Deployer
Changed from the big air spring to three smaller dampeners: slide tubing will now be 1" x 1" x 1/16", small air springs will sit inside the 1" x 1" tubes, and that will replace the surgical tubing for extending the slide. Will lay this out in CAD tonight, then work on the tusks. Parts for minibot have been sent to Harris. Current weight for minibot: 3.7 lb. Current weight for deployer:
Electrical Main
Electronics tray I/O has been done. Current weight: 17.4 (with tray, but no wire weight).
Electrical Controls
