How long is your arm?
 

with all these pictures of arms and such it is hard to find out how long the arm is in the picture. so i did a search and i didnt find a poll on this so im making one.

Our arm is somewhere between 8 and 9 feet when fully extended, but we may limit the amount it can go out because of stability problems...

Re: How long is your arm?
 

Our arm is about over 8 feet long and extended from the top of the robot would be reach about 12 feet.

hmm... interesting i didn't expect another team to have the same length as our team. good job guys!

Re: How long is your arm?
 

Our arm is about 2 feet. There was no spot for that so I couldn't vote. Our elevator, well that's a different story.

Re: How long is your arm?
 

oh sorry about that. im saying overall everything strecthed out all the way.



p.s. is there a way to edit a poll?

I think people are getting carried away with having a really long arm. It doesn't mean a thing if you aren't stable. It's like being a basketball player with hops but no handle.

Dang I should retract my vote, I put 7, that is our arm length, but max height is 12 feet, so well whatever. Check out our arms picture its in the gallery.

in an attempt to keep our robot a secret untill we unveil it..ill just say we had to watch how high we went so we wouldnt hit the celing of the truck shop we work at. Remember, trucks are about 17 feet high...

Re: How long is your arm?
 

Fully extended we're about 14 feet high, and VERY stable :D

RAGE can go about 12.5 feet, and we can do it in about 3 seconds video can be found here. http://rage173.org/video.php?catid=2...gle&videoid=15

We've got a 10 foot "elevator shaft" with a 3 foot arm coming off it (i think), so the hypotenuse is about 10-11 feet

seeing everyone was staying how tall there arm was i guess i can say that Team 1259's arm reaches 11' in the air and we have so many anti tip devices if you see us on the gound take a picture because that will be the ONLY TIME!!!! :D

Re: How long is your arm?
 

Looking at about 10', give or take a few (or several) inches. It's still negotiable right now, though. We've got a couple changes in plans that are being worked out...nothing like livin' it up to the last second! Gotta love this game...
