Week 5: Hub City

How is everybody doing this week? I hope SRPs are going well for all of the seniors.

This week was a bit different. I didn't get anything done SRP-wise because of a week long endeavor of traveling to and occupying Lubbock, Texas with our FIRST Robotics Competition team for the Hub City regional. All of us had loads of fun on the trip there, as well as watching teams from all over the US (and even China!) competing with their robots. Our robot was a bit buggy at the beginning, but throughout the three days there we managed to hammer most of the kinks out.
Our robot made it to quarterfinals, and won the Quality Award for the best manufactured robot from the judges!

For week 6, I'll be returning to my normal SRP schedule. Until then!

Week 5, Blog post delays, FRC regional at Lubbock

Hey everyone!

As some of you may know, I am a student member of the local FIRST Robotics Competition team "4183 Bit Buckets". Most of the team will spend the time between March 5th and March 10th traveling and participating at the Hub City regional in Lubbock, Texas. I am one of the people who will be going there, so a large portion of week 5 will be spent outside of town watching robots compete with each other. This will also undoubtedly cause delay in weekly blog posts, on top of the delay that has already been happening. Therefore, the posts corresponding to weeks 2 through 4 will be posted next Monday when I am back from Lubbock. I apologize for the delay. 

Once the first FRC regional is done and over with, expect to see a whole lot more of activity on the blog, as well as even more activity on my SRP.

I'll see all of you next week!
