Thanks Derek - please follow the Facebook and Twitter for all media! I'll have my DSLR in the shop near the end, we still have a lot of work to do. Your sheet is looking sick so far! Some background on this team: very intelligent and enthusiastic kids and mentors, very little school support. This robot is built with COTS parts and only manual hand and power tools. 3D printing helped a ton filling in the gaps! We also only meet three days a week, of which we lost 3 to snow days, so things have e been tough. I'll make sure the kids update social media often. :) Thanks for the support! |

Without giving everything away, this robot's fuel manipulation prioritizes volume over scoring directly. At lower levels of play, this robot can cycle gears and hang, with some low goal action whenever the robot gets the chance to score a point or two. At higher levels, this robot could grow into a great assisting robot, helping top tier shooters with fuel acquisition. Quote:
The floor raises and lowers primarily because it nearly doubles the robot's ball capacity over a more conventional belt-driven ball loader thing. The floor also needs to be at a few different heights for the various outtake functions the robot can do. Quote:

Contrast it to the message posted directly above you, which is saying exactly the same thing but in a much nicer tone. By phrasing the concern as a question, it invites the team to respond with their plans to lower the CG of the robot. If the team truly didn't plan for this, they get the information needed to know it's an issue, and if the team did plan for this, they're able to respond with their plans for doing so. |

As for feeding other bots, we're really hoping we get to a-bomb into a few bits! We purposely built a waterfall intake so we could also hold balls in the conveyor Incase we want to just reverse it to feed others. |
