Why We Were Gone

       There was couple of reasons why we didn't post on the blog and the are mostly about how COVID-19 changed how the team was going to meet while being safe, the whole FTC season, and the building process.

        COVID really put us into a hard situation by limiting our resources and our ability to meet and fix problems with the robot. So we figured that we would have a meeting on our regular time, but hosting it on discord. Then we realized that we need a day in the week to make sure all the tasks were being worked on and if there was any new information about anything then we would talk about it on that da, so we scheduled a weekday for just checking in or to give new updates about anything which would last between 30-60 minutes.

        Building was going to be different because we cant go to our normal meeting and just build so that meant that we had to CAD a lot and that is exactly what we did. The building process was basically each team member would have a part of the robot to CAD so that the two other members with the robot could build it knowing how it should look like and knowing that we know it would work well. If we wanted to make any changes we would always first CAD, then examine the CAD to make sure that it would actually works and then we edit it on the robot.

        The FTC season was really different from the past seasons because there wasn't any conformations about the time and date for the first league because it all depended on COVID so we had to just make sure our robot was ready before the end of November.

        That is why we were gone for a while, we were just trying to settle in with how the season was going to work and so we couldn't find time, but now we are back.
