Autonomy ... and settling into roles ... Oct 12 Meeting

Flurry of activity at our one-hour meeting today:
1. Bryan & Jonas concentrated on autonomous programming today, got one routine done, got a huge chunk of another one in the bag and tested as well.  Running an autonomous routine for the very first time and seeing it succeed was the highlight of the day for everyone for sure! Shout our to the KTOR crew for helping us with programming templates for EasyC.  That little help is going a long way, thanks! Bryan also brought a draft of our scouting form for review to the meeting.
2. Ben & Justin concentrated on a short mechanical tune up, then developed the start of a checklist for between match check ups to help ensure full functionality in all matches.  They then supported our driver practice.
3. Casey & Mitchell mounted, secured and labeled out pwm/jumper autonomous selector hardware and then spent the bulk of the time on interaction zone driver practice.  They are getting there!

We're certainly really coming together as a fully functioning team at the right time.  With a handful of meetings still to go before our Nov event, the anticipation is surely growing.

See you next week,
Kressly
