Goals¶

Tested voltage at different intake speeds.
Tested voltage of counterrollers.
Tested voltage at different conveyor speeds.
- We found that the conveyor used a lot of amperage (40 A at 4 V)
Further loosened the counterrollers
Removed bar in the middle of the conveyor
- Still used a lot of power
Placed a pulley (not attached to anything) between the belts on the conveyor.
Tested shooter at various voltages.
Discussed various improvements with other subteams
Found new voltages for intake
