Tasks Completed:

  • Discussed the pros and cons of mounting positions--transmission/chassis or hopper


Pros on Chassis --> (Over CIM motors)

  • Better protection
  • Less pain!!!
  • More secure


Cons on all Chassis

  • 3" marker limit - which makes our first design fail.
  • Difficult access
  • Less clearance and more cramming
  • Difficult wiring
  • Larger chance of shorts


Pros on Mounting on Hopper

  • Lots of space
  • Small chance of shorts because of space

Cons for Mounting on Hopper

  • Weight concerning large guage wire
  • If mounted on lexan, unstable
  • If tipped, electronics could get damaged



Tasks In Progress:

  • Process on choosing mount locations-- Chassis or Hopper



Tasks to Complete:

  • Talk to Mechanical 1/2 for status on Chassis, do we still have a 3" limit? WE NEED DIMENSIONS.
  • Aquire transmission dimensions
  • Hybrid design..? Some on Chassis and some on Hopper?
