Re: How much does your robot weigh?
 
We are at 70 lbs in cad.
And that is without electronics and pneumatic [no compressor].
We should be just about 110 fully loaded.

That HAS to go in my signature!

On an unrelated note, I probably just described myself. Haven't gone on an all caps rage yet, but there's always time...

no really we don't want our "shooter" flying off the robot and we need the battery weight to hold it down.

Re: How much does your robot weigh?
 
The first iteration weighs approximately 120 pounds, without any weight reduction techniques. This is very strange for our team :p

CAD is a lifesaver.

Re: How much does your robot weigh?
 
Drive itself is 86 lb, with the electronics board, about 90 lb.

Re: How much does your robot weigh?
 
In CAD? 93 lbs + chain and fasteners (should bring it up to about 110).

In real life? About 20. (Yeah we're behind :P)

On the bright side, you may be the lightest robot at SVR! How easy will it be to balance the bridge with three robots when one of them weighs 1/6th of the maximum weight! :p

Re: How much does your robot weigh?
 
As of last night, with all major components mounted, approximately 107lbs.

BTW batteries weigh ~13lbs, weight adds up with 6awg wire on the battery though.

Re: How much does your robot weigh?
 
We are looking at around 70-80 completely finished with no reduction techniques. ;) and a note to everyone using autodesk- it does have CAD weight issues that can be as high as 20-30 lbs off. Solidworks is around 1-2 lbs off. But in autodesk try to manually enter each parts' weight for a better estimate
