Motor Curve Charts

[twiggzee]

does anybody have the motor curve charts that were provided on the kit of parts website last year? last year's kit of parts page has been removed from the web and we didn't think to save it. =( just trying to get more info on the motors other than what is posted on this years KOP page.

It's a table, not a chart...but you should be able to figure out how to make a chart from it

The 2011 kit of parts webpage is still availible. http://www.usfirst.org/roboticsprograms/frc/2011-frc-kit-of-parts

You can download a motor calculator located here (http://www.chiefdelphi.com/media/papers/2432) which has been updated with motor specs for most of the 2012-legal motors. It will do motor calculations for you.

Be aware, there are some issues with that table:

Thank you for the words of encouragement. I'm glad you are finding it useful.

I will make another appeal here:

If anyone has a source for motor specs for the FP-000968-9013 would you please post it? I want to update the motor calculator (http://www.chiefdelphi.com/media/papers/2432) to support it.

Just this morning FIRST updated the "official" motor performance data to version 4.1, and it includes the 9013.

Thanks for the heads-up. I will add that to the motor calculator .

I wonder where they got the data from? And, is there a source for these motors?


Also, I noticed the FP-2719 is still listed. Three possible reasons:

a) a continuing oversight?

b) the list is not intended to be exclusively 2012-legal motors?

c) the 2719 is a 2012 motor, despite having been de-listed from [R48] by Team Update 1?

They seem to be using different data for the am-0914 than what Andymark has just released.

I'm guessing that it is just a mistake as the 9015 came in the 2010 KOP and the 0673 came in the 2011 KOP (at least according to the KOP checklist)

I've also attached an excel version of the data.

Yes that is odd. I wonder where that data came from. Does anyone know who is the "owner" of the FRC motor data document? And, is that person amenable to friendly informal private discussion?

Done.
