Verification on trailer design

hi! we need a detailed diagram of the trailer hitch

we have a rectangular prism piece of metal that we're supposed to attach to the trailer and to the trailer hitch, but we can't because it seems to attach to a rounded piece of metal.

if anyone has a detailed diagram (or some input) not from the control system manual, it would be greatly appreciated.:smile:

<R18> in the Robot Manual (Section 8 of the rules) has a very detailed description and picture.

The round piece goes into the "slot" side of the piece of channel, and the pin goes vertically thru the holes in both.

The rules are here

Section 8 tells you all about building the robot. Be sure to read and learn the other sections, too!
