The team worked hard for a long time to build a weasel robot using schematics that were initially difficult to understand but became easier with practice. They ended up working well together, never giving up, and finishing in time with help from mentors. Problems included losing small pieces, a crown gear falling out of the gearbox, and unclear directions for important parts like axles. Their final product turned out really good and testing showed their best results in Course 2 where the robot successfully followed the wall, though the blackline sensor needed adjustment.
