Sneak-peak of 1750's game changer in testing
 
I decided to show a quick teaser of our robot testing in prep for competition. You can watch us compete at the Oklahoma regional next week. Our biggest issue is keeping the totes on the conveyor which you can see a little bit of in the teaser. Our robot has about a 35 foot wingspan (frc record?)
watch it here

I am also interested, specifically in how it starts the match, the other conveyors I have seen stay on the other side of the field and load directly to the close platform. This one appears to span completely across the Autozone, I assume it deploys itself at the start of the match.

The conveyor starts the match on its side on the scoring platform longways and is knocked over by the Directional Extending Recycling container Placement [DERP] Crane and is then driven to the chute door (yes, chute door) with omni-wheels on the end of the conveyor. The stacker portion of the robot never leavers the scoring platform, just moves sideways along it after each completed stack and the DERP Crane retrieves the 2 barrels closest to us on the step as well as any barrels our teammates can get within 15ish feet of us.

This sounds completely awesome. I can't wait to see some full match footage of it. Best of luck to your team.

Hahaha, I see what you did there!

As for wingspan... 2994 temporarily had a gigantic, cheesecaked wingspan (see finals 1 and 2 at GTR Central) to try to take 4 RCs, alas it did not work.

Awesome, Definitely looking forward to seeing more video of it.
