Ready For Launch

20/03/2018

A few updates:
- the catapult has now been constructed with the forks, and is launching well.
- The automatism system for the catapults is working, and the stick is sliding well on the when              moved. It needs to be tested with the tension and the sticks tomorrow.
- Machine final assembly will be tomorrow, and it is scheduled for immediate testing on the same day.
- We have decided to name our creation Shelby. This is because the Ford Shelby car is a rear wheel drive car like our machine, that produces a lot of horsepower. Ironically, ours probably generates zero to no horsepower with it's amazing rubber band system.

For now, everything is looking in place, and we are confident that we will manage to obtain the ten full points for our machine.
