Dutch Rookies after 4 weeks
 
Hello everyone,

we made a little video from our robot what we have right now! We're the first native Dutch team.

Looking forward to our regional!

If you have any questions about the robot, feel free to ask!

Please check you permissions on that video. I think you set it to private.

That suction cup arm is so cool! Do you have a video of it picking up discs?

Not yet! We tested the arm and picking up, to see if it can carry the weight + the movement. We have no material of it, yet. I will post it when it's on the robot.. we're working on the valves etc!

Be careful with the suction cup arm. My team learned that suction cups don't work well at picking up scratched discs.

Overall, very nice robot!

That suction cup arm is pretty sweet.

Very solid looking robot! It would be awesome to see you guys at champs. Good luck in NC! The suction cup arm looks really cool, how well does it work? We abandoned floor pick up in favor of driving to feeder stations, and that was one of our ideas and it would be nice to see it in action

VERY nice job!!! Many veteran teams (ours included) would be jealous of what you've accomplished in 4 weeks! It appears as though you can Bag and Tag it right now. Lucky you....

Team 3319 will be at the NC Regional. We are looking forward to meeting your team and seeing you robot in action. If you need anything at the regional just let us know.

That looks really nice... for a moment I was worried that you had only driven the robot on the linoleum floor, but some of the shots at the end make it look like you've been testing it on carpet, too.

We made a "rookie mistake" our first year, and built a four wheel drive, skid steer robot... that turned beautifully on hard surfaces like cement and linoleum, but when we got to the competition and put it on carpet... well... let's just say robots perform much better when they can turn!
