I think this would be pretty good for getting around corners, but you might catch problems with accuracy in auton.

Cute. Personally, I've vowed to stay away from the Kitbot ever since some fun little "tests" I did in the lab with two of them...

Here's an old drive design for you to all look over, as this thread is apparently for that...

Re: Inventor Drawings/Concept sketches

Is that just a slider in the front and the four drive wheels in back?

Re: Inventor Drawings/Concept sketches

looks like there's sprockets on the front wheels so all 6 should be powered

unless you're talking about the first robot

I like the 6 wheels, but it might be hard to turn

Here is a design we seen last year that worked very well. This is what we'll be racing around on this year:

You can have as many wheels as you want. 703 had 14 in their drive last year. Do a photo search it was amazing.

Re: Inventor Drawings/Concept sketches

Is it even possible to use four CIM motors this year because if I remember correctly we were only given 2 in the kit or are we allowed to purchase more so long as they are the same type?

You're allowed up to 4 CIM motors.

Quote:

<R59> Additional motors specifically permitted on 2008 FRC ROBOTS include:
All motors, actuators, and servos provided in the 2008 Kit Of Parts......

....One or two additional 2-1/2” CIM motors (part #FR801-001 and/or M4-R0062-12 in addition to those provided in the Kit Of Parts. This means that up to four, and no more, 2-1/2” CIM motors can be used on the ROBOT.

Re: Inventor Drawings/Concept sketches

are there any main advantages to using 6 not 4 wheels?
