Drivetrain - took apart robot, painted it, assembled base chassis and motor mounts.  Will need some extra hands to help tonight.

Programming - code for upper mechanism is done, but not tested, and without overrides.  Autonomous mode is being coded.  Joystick buttons have been defined.  Programming met with both electrical subteams to coordinate various things.  Need to test the upper mechanism code, work on the code for the hanging mechanism, and troubleshoot the autonomous code.  Camera is still back-burnered at this point.

Electrical - determined positions of battery, board, and cRIO on the robot.  Worked on how the electromagnet will "know" it has grabbed the kicker (limit switch design).  Need a robot to work on!

Controls - finished sheet metal design and sent to Harris.  Will start wiring circuit board.

Mechanical 1 - finished the hanging mechanism in Inventor.  Tried to send it to Harris, but need to send it again with dimensions.

Mechanical 2 - did a bunch of Inventor work, need to do more drawings and get parts made by Harris.

Field - finished building goal frames, working on memory foam padding for goals.
