The motor code for the brushed motors was completed today. Our code to qualify at Monterey was also created. It takes out lines of code that we do not need. We drilled holes in the horizontal rails of the robot to mount thrusters on. We cleaned an old electronics container in case we are not able to finish our new ones for Monterey. We laid out the hole patterns for the SubConns on the rear electronics container. The math for the vector drive was put into C#. We tested the brushed motor code and speed controller at 48V and it worked well. We tested another depth sensor for shallow depth. The back electronics container is finished and will be welded soon. We completed the mounts for the motors. The connection of the front and back cans was finished. We made a fuse to go in line with our batteries so we are always safe when testing. We tested our o-ring at a depth of 40 feet, and it sealed perfectly. Thanks to a generous donation from a sponsor, we now have a 3D mouse to use for CADD.
