Week 8: Last week

The solar team was working on demonstrating the loading process of the solar module and mount with animation but couldn't complete it. We attempted to use SolidWorks to show the mounting process as it was important to show for future solar teams.


Another thing the solar team worked on was writing our final report. We gathered all the research and final design to compile for future teams. We uploaded all the CAD files as well as our report on to the Spartan Superway archive.
