Duality

We replaced our motor, rear axle housing, and rear axle and suddenly, all the problems we were having disappeared. Instead of languishing near the bottom of the pack (Round 1 results; fastest lap in seconds), I think we’re now solidly in the middle. Not bad for one day’s work.

With those problems behind us, our speed control is finally solid. It’s kinda funny how some other groups don’t have speed control down yet, but we do. We’ve been in last place for so long, it’s feels weird not being in last place anymore. We’ll be tweaking steering tomorrow. See if we can put on a good show for Cal Day!

Xero hasn’t said much lately, so let me fill you in. He got his wisdom teeth out today—years after it was first discovered to be a problem. The more wisdom teeth form, the harder and more-painful it is to remove them, so he decided to get the knockout treatment (as I did). He was pretty nervous about it yesterday. He probably wet himself. Ok, I made that up, but well, let’s let him refute that himself. =)
