Collaboration and Team Work

Today we settled on the tasks that each of us needed to accomplish to successfully complete our bogie. I will be working mainly on the master bogie system which involves all the active components.

Today I was placed within the 12th scale bogie team with one other colleague. This was an exciting process as were one step closer into our project. I am excited to finally use my engineering knowledge and abilities and apply it into the Spartan Superway project. Once the teams were formed, the entire 12th scale team met up. The 12th scale team consisted of the bogie team, controls team, track-manufacturing team, and the cabin design team. These were the colleagues that I am working with for the rest of the semester. We were then given specifications of what each team should individually work on. We were then each tasked to create a presen
