January 13, 2009 Start: 6:30 AM, Finish:9:00 PM

Accomplished:

1. Looked at traction control systems and algorithms (Rick and Mike)
2. Fixed some ThunderDrive issues (Andy and Bear)
3. Tested slow/normal/turbo mode in ThunderDrive (Eric/Jeff)
4. Tested all 4 encoders - work forward and backward


Next Tasks to Do

1. Test Acceleration control with the real drivetrain and tweak settings.
2. Implement traction control
3. Get feedback from test drivers and tune driving speed and control curves to their preference.
4. Implement other driving controls: Override switch and LED, Wheel Slip LED, Driving Mode switches.
5. Tweak constants for slow/normal mode - they are way too fast
