Beautiful. Reminds me of this.

Very avante-garde. I like it.

I especially like the abstract air tank mounts.

Y'all should win the Quality award if it was offered.... lola

Dat wiring.

Re: pic: 2415 FINISHED!
 

Very creative use of wire and pneumatic tubing as part of your frame perimeter, I would have never thought of that.

Re: pic: 2415 FINISHED!
 

We figured suspending the speed controllers with the wires was an innovative method of reducing failure due to vibrations

Tell me you guys have a feeding system. I wanna see a repeat of the Rube Goldberg autonomous that we pulled off at Lone Star last year.

Better yet, just leave an open top on your hopper and have someone else fire frisbees into it! It can't possibly go wrong.

Did Santosh come back to do your wiring?


jk Love you Santosh

Re: pic: 2415 FINISHED!
 

Maybe it's a good thing we did South Florida this year instead of Peachtree.....

They're not telling us that mass of wires is sentient, malevolent, and prepared to mercilessly tangle opponents.

Re: pic: 2415 FINISHED!
 

Or robot inspectors. Or unwary students.

Re: pic: 2415 FINISHED!
 

Can you share the wiring diagram for this? I'd love to implement it on our bot.

son, check yourself before you wreck yourself
because the best way to know you're wrong is when you think you've got all the edges smoothed out.

do me a favor and read that in a jersey accent.

Sean, I'm so glad to see you've graduated from building your robot from wood and have gone to a much more industrial look.

Re: pic: 2415 FINISHED!
 

Funny, looks like 1648's practice electronics board. you took our ideas, didn't you? :ahh:

Can't wait to see your finished robot (and maybe be on the same alliance with you guys at P'tree :) )

Re: pic: 2415 FINISHED!
 

Thank you for reminding us all that the internet is not always a serious place.

Re: pic: 2415 FINISHED!
 

No installed battery... I take it you've found a way to get inductive power from the field!

Re: pic: 2415 FINISHED!
 

I don't think you understand how much it pains me to not have any wood this year

Re: pic: 2415 FINISHED!
 

I'm all about wireless wires these days.

Re: pic: 2415 FINISHED!
 

after a long day of testing we have found our talons overheat:(

Have moved t hem between the drive belts where the teeth move air and cool it. We plan to win the design innovation award this year.

Or you could mount a fan on them :p

Re: pic: 2415 FINISHED!
 

Have you considered face mounting to the shooter wheels and running wires co-axially somehow? This should solve the heat issue.

Re: pic: 2415 FINISHED!
 

Just put ice on them before the match.
