How fast will your robot be?
 
How fast will your robot go?

This should help us all find a nice average that we'd all like to be in.

Can't tell you. Proprietary information, antoninny :P

Maybe if you send me a check for a large sum, I might be persuaded to tell you that......

Let's just say it goes fast or slow.... from COUGH ft/sec to COUGH ft/sec.....

Hmm......
 
Well....i'm not going to say what i voted for...but thats why its an anonimous (sp?) vote......but i wonder how many people lying!!!

:D


Definition of transmission??? The kind that goes on the end of the drill motor or a "home made" transmission, or either one?



:confused:

Classified information
 
Our estimated top speed is classified, but the information will probably be declassified at our first regional in Cleveland.

We can safely say that our top speed will be under 40 mph.

Anton Abaya 12-01-2002 00:09

actually, we're going to be less than 1ft a sec but we'll pull the entire arena with us.... slowly but surely.

JVN 12-01-2002 00:53

our robot stays in on place... it actually picks up and moves the playing field around it... there is a rule against damaging the field, NOT moving it...:p

Jon Abad 12-01-2002 14:57

We're testing right now. i'm starting the timer, we'll get back to you.

Tim Baird 12-01-2002 15:08

Uh, yeah. I'm down at the other end of the testing facility away from jon abad. Aparently he was going to be testing the speed of our driveline with me, but...the robot is already down here and he didn't even start timing yet. We'll have to get back to you.

I am at the midpoint of the testing facility between Jon and Tim and I just saw a blur of color almost run me over. Do you guys know what that was?

i'm a bit to the side of our testing facility, and i just saw some blue flash. upon further inspection it was determined to be cherenkov radiation.

what's that? our kit hasn't arrived yet? d'oh.

Ydnar 13-01-2002 22:31

Anton Abaya 13-01-2002 22:35

Mark Hamilton 18-01-2002 12:24

I cant tell you exactly how fast it goes, but I can tell you from now on we send the robot out for food runs...
