Put a piece of plywood down on the bathroom scale instead, then either zero out this weight or note how much the plywood weighs. Then you could put the entire robot on the plywood and weigh the entire robot.

And then...what? Drill some holes in the plywood so you can see the scale?

Just fill your pneumatic wheels with helium. Thatll make your robot weigh way less.

Also we're always conservative with weight during build, and have just barely hit 100 the past two years. Its nice not to have to worry about that.

Those heavy-duty mecanum wheels and the 4-side intact were really heavy. We'll get under 120 w/o sacrificing any functionality.

That shooter of yours could probably take a few lightening holes.

We thought with the new frame wed be heavier...somehow we came up lighter.

Le heart attack.

Your team is in our prayers.

256 is a nice and comfortable 119, which leaves us 5 pounds for LED lights!

I know we only have 1 pound left, but we have 5 pounds of LEDs in our room, and they're not going to waste!

Re: How much does your robot weigh?

Our robot was "pre-cheesed" this year. guess the 4000 3/16 holes, and the 1500 3/8 holes helped, because it weighs 109 lbs. extra weight will be added to improve our (currently) sub par bridge and bump manipulator.

Hopefully that included batteries and bumpers!
