Team Members helping:   Mike, Andy, Shauna, Calvin, Bear, Jeff, Eric, Rick
January 14, 2009  Start: 5:30pm,  Finish:9:00 PM

Accomplished:

  1. Corrected motor direction.   Reduced power for slow and regular modes.
  2. Researched traction control mechanisms. 
  3. Changed hard-coded upper mechanism code to more flexible codes
  4. Got basic acceleration limit working - increase ramp up time to 3sec or so


Next Tasks to Do

  1. Implement traction control
  2. Get Christian to implement control code
  3. Move sensor reading/storage to a single, separate class out of ThunderDrive - many classes need access to encoders, pots, etc.  Perhaps ThunderSense.cpp?
  4. Finish Autonomous pseudocode
  5. Structure the Autonomous() function - deciding between modes, how to call/run a mode, etc.
