UPDATE!!!!!!

      Today was very productive, we thought of a more wedge design, instead of a rectangle, also Alex made a hammer and added a bunch of spikes, it was very effective, and we popped the ballon easily. 

Modifications of prototype

      Today, as you can see, Alex and I added a saw to the back of the battlebot. We also installed wheels with ball bearings and they were glued to the bottom of the bot.

Electronics Day

      Today Sofie and I worked on the Arduino and motors for 2 hours straight troubleshooting. By the end of the day, we had two motors and one servo moving correctly. It was the hardest and most boring thing in my life. yay.

Prep Day

Today was the worst day ever. Everything that could go wrong did go wrong, the third motor that spins the blade didn't work for a while, I had to redesign the wheels three times, the servo mount was too small, then to big, and on the third time it was a millimeter to small, so I used a Dremel on that, and eventually got it working, mounting the wheels to the motors was absolute torture, and so was mounting the motors to the motor mounts. Overall, today was horrible. Also, we don't have any pictures because I took them after Sofie uploaded them.(savage level 999999999%)
