Re: Storing Tetras on Robot
 

if u check the FIRST Q+A, they answered the question and said that you cannot load more than one tetra at a time, but you are able to hold more than one on your bot.

The update also says that they will try to move tetras during the game to make sure that no station "runs dry".

Re: Storing Tetras on Robot
 

Our goal is to hold at least a few to limit transit time. If worse comes to worse, though (i.e. weight or control problems) then we'll just do one at a time.

Our team just put together a tetra the other day, and we figured out that it would be harder to hold more than 2 tetra's at a time because of the power and everything.

Do you have any statistics or testing to back that up ? Im really wondering how much of a load its going to add, and how fast we will be able to move with a load.

Re: Storing Tetras on Robot
 

We tested a few of our prototypes that we put together. Bob the Builder (That's his nickname) helped us with the calculations and all of that. We worked our way through that last Thursday. We have our results written in our Design/ Fabrication logbook.

i like the idea of teamwork between robots. one could load them from the stations, stack them, and then pass them to another robot to cap a goal. while one is capping, the other is loading. i think it would be feasible to stack 2-3 tetras on the robot at roughly the same hight as the loading platform so that most cappers would be able to pick them up. put the third robot on defense, and theres a wholesome strategy.

Re: Storing Tetras on Robot
 

we are looking at about 4 'hands' right now. 2 of which could hold more than one(2 loaded my a human). we looked at makign somehting to hold them and it seemed liek it would take too much room, so we are just gunna use 1 or 2.
