Clawbot Drivetrain Activity Guide

This is where you will document your process and product for the assignment grade.

STEP 2:

Obtain a printed copy of Part 2 of the instructions for your group. Then, continue working to assemble the drivetrain.

STEP 3:

Assemble the drivetrain and vertical supports for the Clawbot (steps 13 through 27).
These steps include mounting the V5 robot brain and arm motor.

STEP 4:

Take a picture of both the top, rear and side of the drivetrain you have assembled.

Download these from the camera into a folder that is shared with each member of your group. You can also share this folder with the teacher.

Note: After downloading the files, you should delete them from the camera so it is easier for the next team to identify their own robot.
