16.8 fps (measured) no-load... Extremely controllable holonomic drive, thanks to our magnetic compass mounted on the robot next to steel rack and pinion (for super-sensitivity...)

And it drives straight.

... Just kidding about the super-sensitivity part. The compass is good for 90 degree intervals.

We can do 8 ft/sec in low gear, used for hurdling and picking up the ball. And 16.5 ft/sec in high for chasing the ball and doing the lap once in possession.

However we have 6 motors on our drive train so we can get to top speed with VERY fast acceleration. ;)

14 fps (on paper) with car steering. I highly doubt anyone could possibly maintain a speed higher that 15fps for more than 1 or 2 seconds.

You forgot about our springs that push off the wall at the start of the match.

Do you think that it will be possible for you to go full speed when there are 5 other robots on the field along with 4 balls? How often do you think you will be able to go that speed?

As a I side note, how fast can you make the turns?

I guess it comes down to one underlying question that we all will find out at the first competition. How fast can we all go and still maneuver in a safe fashion without ramming other robots? As we all know, light taps are okay ;)

edited by Sunshine: fat fingers had me punch a 6 instead of a 4 on original post ...... sorry

actually at suffield shakedown the speed actually allows you to get away from bots who decide to pester you.

we can get 12-14 fps on high gear, significantly less on low gear.

All times are GMT -5. The time now is 04:37.
