When things start to come together
 
Our robot is.................. well starting to look like a robot =P



Even though the bot was on a table, it still can extend way past the overpass





With what we have the bot is only 85.5lbs!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But more is going on. Also that railing around the back of it is just sitting on there for right now =P.

Nice, we are going with a similar telescoping design. We are using 80/20 with sliders though.. Nice 80/20 holding up the elertronics board:D

Nice elevator. Have you tried the four traction wheels on carpet?

we have used 4 IFI traction wheels for the past 2 years, this making the 3rd.

Very good job. This may just be that the picture is zoomed in a lot, but does it violate R<16>?

Re: When things start to come together
 
is that the 80" rule? If so the bot just fits in that with the flippers extended.

Wow! That looks great! Do you have the dimensions for your robot?

Nice! Wild guess: does it take about 8 seconds to lift?

Everything was made to be as light weight as possible. Since we used epoxy instead of bolts we save weight there. We started making our ball picker upper today and fabbed up some more stuff and we are at like 91lbs now. Our electrical stuff is all mounted on polly carb boards.

The frame is like 37 by 27 and the lift will go like 8ft high if not more. We wont use it all during comp. though

Very smooth lift. Looks like things are coming along really nicely for you.

JOhnch181 03-02-2008 15:54

Re: When things start to come together
 
do you have anything protecting your electrican board from the ball landing on it.

DarkFlame145 03-02-2008 15:57

Re: When things start to come together
