i was thinking of doing this, launching a BF magnet up into the rafters (assuming they are metal) and hoisting yourself and your other 2 teammates up into the air. technically your not touching any feild eliments. - Bochek |
Re: Robot ideas
im surprised there is no height limit this year. even if it was something outragous like 15-20', it would be worth it just to avoid loopholes like that. FIRST is usually smarter than this.....its almost like they want us to hook onto rafters....

Re: Robot ideas
I Bet someone has asked this already and i missed it but would your team had to choose an alliance partner would you choose an alliance partner who has cabale of picking up an alliance partner, scoring on low and middle goals with defense capabilities or a robot who was pure offense who can score on all three levels? :confused:
Thank you for your answers :D |
Re: Robot ideas
If you could get all 3 robots into the air, you really wouldnt need to score that much, i think 90 points is going to determine the match every game.
*If you could get all robots into the air at the same time, then you would have to win some sort of award.* But i highly doubt its going to happen ever this year. Good Luck :yikes: |

on another note, the multiplied points you recieve from lifting other robots up does seem like a match decider in a varitey of situations. But then again, same as last year, you dont know if theres enough time to necessarily get to do that at the end of the match. |
Re: Robot ideas
What if you built your robot so that it could climb on top of a "box on wheels" robot? If you watch the video labled "2003 web video" on this page http://www.swindsor.k12.ct.us/Highsc...ia_video.shtml you will see that this is possible. I don't know how practical it would be for this year's game, but it's definately something to think about.

Re: Robot ideas
wheels i would highly recommend wheels with the two in the middle powered and run a chain on to the front and front to the back;)

Re: Robot ideas
They are not going to let you hang from the rafters. Plus people going to GLR would have to grab somethign thats above 100ft. high. Then once you get to Atlanta, you are out of luck.

Re: Robot ideas
yes you can have an extendable ramp, the only width restriction applies to the starting dimensions. if you have an interior ramp that extends out then it is perfectly legal

Re: Robot ideas
so has anybody figured out some good ideas for picking up the ringers?
|
Re: Robot ideas
Staying off the ground without the help of your allies? Helicopter and flywheel to power it after the end of the match.
