Mount Actuators
 The
actuators from Firgelli Automations
came in Wednesday February 1.
 They will be mounted on the underside of
the driving console.
Mount Seat
 The
seat will be permanently mounted
now that our client has come to sit in the
go kart.
 This will be done by implementing cross
members along the frame so that the seat
has something to bolt on to.
 The pre-threaded holes on the underside
of the seat will be used.
Steering
 As
stated before the steering will be
controlled by our Dayton gear motor.
 Jeff has taken the appropriate
measurements so that the motor can be
integrated into the steering column
seamlessly.

This will be accomplished by mounting the
motor at the same angle as the steering
column and connecting it via a chain drive
Joystick and Microcontroller
 Both
the joystick and microcontroller have
been ordered.
 Joystick will be implemented into the side
console of the seat.


A console will be mounted on the left arm
of the chair to mimic our clients left hand
drive wheel chair.
The arm will be able to flip up out of the
way
Microcontroller
 The
microcontroller that was ordered is a
Arduino Uno Board Rev3
 It will allow us to run all of the necessary
electronic parts that we have
 Brahm has been working diligently on
learning, programming and testing the ccode for our microcontroller
