Coming Together

For the first time in a long while, Sonic is once again ready for testing. We fixed the string system for raising and lowering the lift and moved it so it is easily accessible if it needs to be changed or repaired. While practising with the robot, we noticed that the axle holding the strings would slide, allowing the gears to lose contact with each other. By providing more stabilization to the motor mounts and adjusting the axle, we hope to prevent this from occurring.
