The overall design was decided before the season started, was not modified thereafter

The code for the drivebase was created in within the first 5 days of the season, was immediately ready to test once the drivebase was handed off to software. There were no physical problems noted as of that time.

• Changed to curvature drive
• Added a speed limiter to prevent tipping
  • Later on in the season after ECU we found that there was an issue of tipping if stoped abruptly and was driven in the opposite direction. As a result of this we added a check if this happened to limited the speed.
• Added a quadratic throttle ramp

Paths Files

Within the first week we got characterization and a straight path working on the practice drivebase. It took quite a bit to figure how to do reverse splines, which limited how complex the paths got before Guilford. The practice drivebase was under utilized.
