Agenda: Robot Improvements, Notebook and Profile, presentation, Demo for Sarah Billings

Attendees: Coach Cynde, Coach Grace, Sean Pakros, Jessica Hawkinson, Zeke Humber and Nate Humber, Skyler Firestone

Notes: Photos of our team work were picked up for our display boards. Our meeting notes are all entered in to the computer so that we can add pictures and get it to the printer. Now we just need to go through the notes and pull out the Engineering points for our timeline.

We have an outreach meeting scheduled with Madalyn NGuyen tomorrow at 10:30. She is FTC and FRC Alumni, FTC Dean’s List Finalist and FRC Dean’s List Winner 2020. She is an advocate for FIRST and young women in FIRST. 

The team believes past of the reason for dropped blocks at Meet 3 may have been the strength of the servo and would like to try to change out servos. We also discussed that lowering the height of the claw mechanism would make it easier to get between the layers in autonomous. We also changed out the silicon tape on the claw.

Mentor Sarah Billings stopped by for a demonstration of the robot and challenge, She has helped mentor some of our teammates in CAD and donated our Makerbot 3D printer and filament to the team. She was impressed with what we have accomplished and we can contact her any time we need assistance.
