The robot is HIGHLY unstable and it makes horrible grinding noises.
The cable management is abysmal. It's like a bowl of spaghetti.
I'm am trying my best to be a supportive and not overly interventionist, annoying, advisor to the robotics club, but if these kids don't stop overloading those motors and learn to use some gears I AM GOING TO CRY.
"Wow these cables are kind of a big tangle."
"yeah we had to hook up so many things, they make you give it an ON/OFF switch!"
"Well maybe you should bundle some of them together so it's less likely to tangle."
"OK"*makes one big yarn ball of cables*
"Cable management. We need Cable Management. This is like when the cables are a lovely diagram for your eyes that shows how everything is connected with all the extra bits folded away. This... yarn ball, is, one idea. We need a new idea."

I need to find some photos so they can understand what I'm talking about...

@futurebird Are you saying that what they're doing... grinds your gears?

They were very upset about the "on/off" switch for some reason, but it's a safety thing.

NO. I'm saying that's what it's NOT doing. LMAO.

Would it be wrong to put up some photos of cable lacing in the room you're working in?
"A variety of lacing techniques are visible on the cabling of the NASA Mars Exploration Rover Spirit and its lander."

This is a good photo. Maybe some strategic decorations could help.

To be fair to them, the robot *can* do the task... maybe half of the time.
@futurebird time to get investors! Bring in the financial literacy teacher and make this a 360 learning experience

They have improved the cable management so much. I’m so proud of them.

I could learn some lessons from them. I hate cable nests but usually just cram them behind something so I don’t have to look at it.

If you can’t see the wire rats nest then it doesn’t exist? is that the theory?
