The difference: BIG!


What kind of feed-back are you using? Encoders on the tough boxes?

Is there some kind of "mechanical traction control" (under gearing) as well? What ratios are you running?

Re: Team 121 Traction Control
 
what method are you using for slip detection? I'm assuming since u were mentored by 148 it is a ground sensor vs motor encoder?

Woot!

Ours is working well too. Great to see that you guys are performing the same as well. :)

Nice. Is that programming only, or are there some accelerometers in there?

EDIT: wow like 5 posts at the same time

I believe Chris is referring to how quickly 121 had a competitive robot last season, it was on youtube and scoring in week 3. Just slightly intimidating :p

121 is one of the beastliest teams that uses the kit frame. They are fast and efficient.

Nice. Was it hard to implement the traction control?

While we are not as far ahead as we were last year, we are still making good progress.

If this doesn't sell teams on the advantages of traction control, I don't know what does.
