Title: SoR robot contest due date in 5 weeks
Post by: Admin on July 07, 2008, 08:48:11 PM
I'm just checking up on everyone to see how progress is going on your robots. Remember, if you wait last minute, your robot and tutorial will be a rush job thereby reducing your winning chances. :P

I think I forgot to mention this before, but just like the last contest, winners get an option between $100 and an Axon (http://www.societyofrobots.com/axon).
(or if a winner already bought an Axon directly from me, I'll reimburse you for it)

Lastly, I will be linking my favorite member tutorials over to the main site pages after this contest - so feel free to check your older tutorials over for grammar and clarity!

I'll have most of mine done by this coming Saturday. I may just need to test the robot and document my testing and experimentations after that.

A reminder for motivation: winners get $100, or a free Axon, or reimbursement for an Axon you bought ;D

OMG! I just had an ideea of what I can do! I think I can enter the contest, this time with a working robot... I have most of the code working, I just need to build a frame for the parts and tweak the PID. Oh, it's going to be a $50 robot update (a very cool one  ;D ).
