I decided to first ideate the overall shape of the new version of the chassis. This also involved speaking with one of the more experienced builder. I was advised to increase the width of the robot and reduce the length a bit to improve the turning ability of the robot. I started the CAD process by first taking the base sketch of the chassis from the previous version. I copied and edited the base sketch to get an idea of the chassis dimensions. I also used my paper sketch of the chassis I made previously to get a rough idea of the size of the chassis. From there, I added reference CAD for the main electronics components for the robot and placed and allocated their placements. I went on to also add my reference for the N20 Motor brackets and went on to create the chassis design. I also made the top plate using projections of the chassis' top face. Following that I made side holes for the switch and LED that need to be easy to access and see respectively.
