- Control Board in Inventor: The current drive train design is almost complete in Inventor this means that one of the kids can start drawing in the control board.
- Check all Batteries: The batteries should have the tape removed and crimps checked and redone if needed. Larry is talking about buying a power meter that will graph the battery.
- Experiment with Line Sensors: Pull out a power supply and scope, find out how the sensors work, and test range and sensitivity.
- Measure Mach 1511 Polycarb: This is the thickness of the polycarb to use on the control board and order a sheet.
