11/5 - 11/11

Progress:
This week, my group mates and I get together to decide on purchasing the motor and controller:
- KBL controllers found and purchased [Approved by Dr. Furman]
- 3 Motors purchased [Approved by Dr. Furman]

Right now, we are waiting for the motor to be shipped from China.

Tire progress:
I looked into airless tire options as our wheel, but our team decided to not use airless tire, instead, we are designing a rounded steel case that will house the motor and become our wheel.

Shaft progress:
We are going to change our shaft design. We are designing a threaded axle that will connect one motor on each side of that shaft instead of designing a single shaft for each motor.

Next week's assignment:
- Continue CAD for new shaft
- Continue CAD for case housing
