Sumo Bot

5-9 Today I was supposed to get a remote so I could start testing my robot on the Sumo Table... but that didn't work. At least I have my robot built. recommend

... dude to a tremendous pain, known as the "wisdom tooth", I was absent from class.
oh, and I gave a tour to the people from the Invisible Children organization.

Today I practiced sumo wrestling Dax. I have some problems. I can't go very fast because of the gearing on my robot. I can push him if he stays still, but I can't catch him or get out of the way if he tries to flip me.

I think that if I'm just super active and really annoying that my robot can win. I'll just keep spinning, and keep going around my opponents robot. Yep, I really should have thought of a better design. Dax's is prettty sweet with the flipping thing.

I watched Buffy The Vampire Slayer! Other people seemed to be having a good time playing with their robots, and I have 4th quarteritis....

Junior River Rafting Trip!

And today we battle....
I didn't win anything! :( people kept flipping me. Like I said earlier, I should have put more consideration into the design of my robot. If I was lower to the ground it might have turned out better for my center of gravity. Also... I was forgetting which way was forward and side... I didn't drive my robot very well. Oh dear, it was fun but I'm looking forward to next year!
