Double sided intake club

[Caleb Sykes]

I remember a couple of "clubs" last year (7 disc auto, 50point climb/dump, etc...) and I thought it would be fun to showcase some of the niche robots like this again. Please post pictures and/or video if you have them.

At my team's regional, we (4536) were the only double-sided intake bot. Here (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_sWpcQ3F_hk) is our highlight video from that event. We really liked the flexibility that this design gave us, we could play either the back or middle zone really well. We were hoping that we could get a ton of assist points which we did.

Watching webcasts, I have seen 254, 3467, 95, and 1678, but I am sure that there are even more double-siders out there.

1538 (http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/showthread.php?t=127488) has two intakes.

[Peyton Yeung]

Team 461 (http://www.thebluealliance.com/team/461) has a double sided intake.

[Abhishek R]

1477 (http://www.texastorque.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/2014Robot@Dallas.jpg) has two as well.

1477 (http://www.texastorque.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/2014Robot@Dallas.jpg) has two as well.

As does 2881 (https://www.flickr.com/photos/spectrum3847/13637188244/in/set-72157643440852755)

1493 has two also. Wish we would have utalized the benifits of it more. Makes for great strategy.

Actually Caleb you weren't the only one at 10K Lakes. We do double side intake, but without two intakes. Our robot is symmetric so we can put the vacuum down on either side of the robot.

Team 1086 (http://www.bluecheese1086.org/Images/history/mozz.jpg) has two side intakes.

[Kris Verdeyen]

Gatorzillas 2936 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=izZZwjdmCdU) has it too.

[Gweiss96]

Team 696 also has double sided intake.

[Taylor]

3147 and 1529 can load either side.

[Mgjohnson]

Well, I guess you could call 2481's intake two sided (or more like three sided, as it is 270 degrees), but I don't know if that really counts...

[Chris Fultz]

And 234.

[Peter Matteson]

And RAGE, 173

[Al Skierkiewicz]

And 111.

[Citrus Dad]

1678 with flexible acrylic arms that I haven't seen elsewhere yet.

Polycarbonate arms :P right?

[Boe]

1678 with flexible acrylic arms that I haven't seen elsewhere yet.

1714 also has polycarb a arms...as well as a polycarb frame and shooter

1477's are flexible...I think they're polycarbonate.

[Aidan H.]

Also 624 (http://img.team624.org/53187115.2c90a5cc49a035.jpg)! Though it seems they haven't utilized them for a 3 ball auto... Yet... (They are probably limited by their catapult's recharge speed and their routine of getting double hot goal)

They are, polycarb.

[Caleb Sykes]

Anyone want to make a polycarb arm club? :rolleyes:

[Michael Corsetto]

We'll call it the Team 16 Tribute Club.

[Infinator10]

696 checking in! Front and back intake with a 3 ball auto. Not the original design, but ended up being implemented after CVR for LAR

Also 624 (http://img.team624.org/53187115.2c90a5cc49a035.jpg)! Though it seems they haven't utilized them for a 3 ball auto... Yet... (They are probably limited by their catapult's recharge speed and their routine of getting double hot goal)

We actually changed the catapult design slightly at Alamo which made it difficult to compress the ball through the back. (We can't get the 3 shots because of the recharge time anyway, you're right, but it's nice not to need a winch or anything extra to bring it down, just gravity.) We changed the back pickup for Orlando into a 33-inspired "halo" to keep the ball in place and not moving around.

[Cam877]

Team 3132 has it too.

[mman1506]

We have them, unfortunately they never worked properly at our regionals and we won't be running them at champs. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kmM2E5Bx8Pk

We are the same, but with a wheeled intake/shooter. Symmetry Club!

[Dominick Ferone]

5030 has 2 side intakes with wheels.

[echin]

3467 has one. Reveal video here:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8EVAaAPrZG4

Of course you can't forget 254. Don't think I saw anyone mention the poofs yet.

Except in the first post.

And....yep, I'm dumb. Appologies for my apparent blindness. Lol

[RoboChair]

1678 is a 3 position intake with Polycarb arms, front down, back down, and top intake when both are up.
