Re: please post hints in how to help improve first bot chassis and which ones they r
By your team number, i'm guessing you're a rookie. Welcome to FIRST! We just finished our first year so I know where you are coming from. I will give you some advice i received from a veteran team: As a first year team, use the stock frame and drive train given to you in the KOP. It's not very sexy, but insures you have a moving robot come regionals. It also allows you to spend more time working on your game mechanism. take a look at the drive train we built during our rookie year. It was very reliable. We did some upgrading during the summer. If i can get some picture of it i'll post them for ya

You may wish to read the following threads:
http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/sh...ad.php?t=50291 http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/sh...ad.php?t=41757 And these whitepapers: http://www.chiefdelphi.com/media/papers/1705 http://www.chiefdelphi.com/media/papers/1443 http://www.chiefdelphi.com/media/papers/2037 I can't seem to find them now, but somewhere on the FIRST site there should be an archive of the 2007 FIRST Robotics Conference that has some powerpoints that may be of use. |

White papers: Had to go to the WayBack machine to find the URL for these two, for some reason IFI has removed the links to them from their site: http://www.ifirobotics.com/docs/Chas...%20Process.pdf http://www.ifirobotics.com/docs/Driv...provements.pdf More whitepapers from CD-Media: http://www.chiefdelphi.com/media/papers/1469 http://www.chiefdelphi.com/media/papers/1405 http://www.chiefdelphi.com/media/papers/1592 And, finally some pictures; since pictures are worth a thousand words, some examples of drivetrains: Mecanum Omniwheel-based holonomic Tank Treads Swerve Drive Another (quite different) swerve 4WD And, lastly my favorite drive system type: 6wd Well, I said lastly above. I lied. Here are my last links, this time for real. In my opinion, the best bang-for-the-buck upgrade you can make to the kit chassis/drivetrain: 2 more of these, 2 of these, and add these to taste. Once you read through all of the stuff linked to in this thread, you'll understand why I recommend these modifications. |
