Vehicle Planning

• Design Decision: Figure out which end is forward. Draw a clear arrow on the board pointing forward. Make sure your whole team agrees on this decision.
• Decorate your chassis! May as well. You have markers and stickers – pass it around & make it your own!
• Component Layout: figure out where your major components are going to fit on the chassis. Pay attention to:
  • Raspberry Pi
  • Wheel locations
    • Design Decision: Discuss as a team if you want to use one castor wheel or two. Either way is fine, but have the discussion. Screw them into place.
  • USB battery location
  • AA battery location
  • L298N location

  NOTE: Record your component locations so that you don’t forget. Take notes, mark the board up using your Sharpie, whatever you need to do to remember.

• One last thing. Feel free to pick a team name. If you do, make sure you tell Mr. Bowman what your new name is.
