Thursday 1/9/20 - Programming issues

Date: Thursday, January 9th, 2020
Agenda: Perfect the programming!
In Attendance: Hayden, Liam and Sean
Note Taker: Sean
Tasks: Make changes to the programming to improve it
Reflection: Most of the meeting was spent improving the power to the lift arm by adjusting the values. Unfortunately, the arm motor got hotter and hotter and eventually started smoking, and the battery quickly ran out of charge. 
I think that is 3 motors this season that have smoked from over use. We set off school alarms once and are not trying to do that again, although we joke about it.
We have to change our plan so that the arm motor is not running constantly so that we can avoid this issue.
