1/17/26 - Intake:

Accomplished Today

  • Tested designs and concluded the bumper is at the wrong height
  • Material we used for the fuel was successful
  • Started new design to fit the correct height

1/18/26 - Intake:

Accomplished Today

  • CADed multiple intake designs with the correct bumper height
  • ran into issues with the width of the intake
  • did work on geometry for future designs

1/20/26 - Intake:

Accomplished today (and notes for 1/21/26)

  • Geometry needs to be corrected, large dead zone where the ball is not being moved by rollers
  • Width issue resolved (for now)
  • worked on eliminating the need for a support near the bumper

1/22/26- Storage

At integration on Tuesday, it was determined that the storage will take the form of a spindexer. Therefore, the subteam's primary goals for the evening are to decide how the fuel will transition from the intake to the spindexer and to begin CADing the storage mechanism. 



1/24/26 - Intake

  • after many failed attempts, we have created a succesful 4 roller intake, needs a tiny bit of tweaks but works overall.

2/12/2026 - Storage

  • we developed a 2 stage extending hopper that fits within frame perimiter
  • all that is needed to do is integrate intake so we can extend/retract the hopper with intake.

extending hopper













2/18/26 -storage/intake

  • Hopper has been fabricated, and supports are assembled and on the robot
  • Intake and gearboxes have been fabricated and assembled
  • gearboxes and intake are on the robot
  • CANcoder had issues with mounting, it is now secured with velcro.
  • Hopper had issues with mounting as it was bending outside of frame perimiter in starting config
