Work Night 5.4.16

Work Night 

Date: 5.4.16
Location: Logan High School
Time: 4:15 PM-8:00 PM
Goal: Place boxes, solder circuits, and wire up to the motor drivers.
Students: Oscar, Grant, Killian and Isaac
Also former student..Max Sexauer and Dave Foye, Engineering Consultant

We had a great work night and got many things accomplished. The main focus was to begin to getting everything wired based on our schematic. We also had to make boxes for relays and our other soldered components to protect them. The front steering circuit was tested with the linear actuator. After some troubleshooting it was determined that the terminal block we were using had some rusted connections and was not conducting. After working around that, the linear actuator tested successfully from our motor driver.

Components for the suppression network for our main motor were soldered direct to circuit board. We plan to work on the AV again tomorrow night to wire in the main drive motor and motor driver and test it.

Students work on various fabrication assignments
