Mechanical (1/24): Elevator (one person) [FIRST PRIORITY]
Mechanical (1/24-25): Hubs (Gaby, Christine)
Mechanical (1/24-25): Gearboxes (Ming-Ming)
Mechanical (1/24-25): Wheel shafts (one person)
Mechanical (1/25): Rolling Chassis DONE
Mechanical (until done): CLAW DESIGN!! (Lilian, Krystine, Shannon)
Electronics (in the future after the rolling chassis is done): Cut a battery box and compressor plate
Electronics (in the future after the rolling chassis is done): Get a piece of plastic and put the electronics on

Life goes like this. College applications are
done -- life is easy. Finals are done -- life is easy. Seventh period
final -- there's more time! Robotics season has started -- life is
stressed, there's no time, but there's more fun. Life also goes like
this: WHERE DID ALL THE TIME GO?

Katherine -
programming with new code
drivers have started practiced (and testing)
electronics - have/need two speed controllers, OI possibly for 2006 model, for practice, possbible RC
Driving - possibly use Bell's?
Hybrid Mode - make our own remote control
