Homework Day 7 - Alex Cracraft

Will was sick today, so that negatively impacted our progress. However, we worked with quarter scale designs. We did some more measurements, and made some adjustments to our design. Our quarter scale model started to come together, but then (15 minutes before the end of the day) fell apart. We used some hot glue in place of superglue.

  • Our car is 6 ft long, 4 ft tall, and 3 ft wide
  • We are using the maximum size wheels available (10 inch diameter, I believe)
  • Once you have these wheels, we need a way to STEER the wheels. 
  • We plan to place the motor in the back, less than a foot away from the axle.
  • We are looking for a faster top speed & acceleration.
