Well its 3 days till game time and I personally think this is one of the best robots my team has ever built

Troy, that's why they're called 'teasers', we're supposed to guess what the robot does, gosh :p

Looks nice, though. You guys have really come a long way.

Wow didn't even think that was possible. Intentionally adding weight...we wish. Oh well back to drilling lots of holes in the robot.

Re: [OCCRA]: Teaser

Yep its possible, last year we were about 90-95lbs and this year our guess is were around the same if not less. I was supprised the diamond plate didnt make us very heavy.

I'm as surprised as you are, I think we can fairly blame most of our weight on our tires, or at least a good amount of our excess weight.

judging by the looks or your tires..keep your fingers crossed. Lets put it this way, a single tire is by far the heaviest part of our robot.

Re: [OCCRA]: Teaser

yea the wheels weight capacity is 55lbs each or somthing like that ... the best way to get ride of weight is to well, i really dont know, we have never had a weight issue, we have been over weight maybe once and that one time we had unneecary components we just took off

Re: [OCCRA]: Teaser

Well I dont know alot about OCCRA but that robot looks robust, there seems to be plenty of structural support. Only question I have is how much slack is there in your drive chain? It looks like alot, however that may serve a purpose or it may be a bad picture.
