I saw "overdrive" and i got very confused.

nice looking dumper you got there. whats the ball output/capacity?

Re: pic: FRC 2753, Team Overdrive 2009 Robot
 

Can you clarify which ruling particularly?

Re: pic: FRC 2753, Team Overdrive 2009 Robot
 

This ruling outlawed the belt because of the points on it.

We don't really know how much it can hold but its more than 25 balls.

Allow me to be the first to say that their handling is amazing. The robot was well controlled all the time. It was a lot of fun practicing with you guys, despite our technical difficulties...

Re: pic: FRC 2753, Team Overdrive 2009 Robot
 

Yes, we do love the way it drives.

It was fun practicing with you guys too.

See you in NJ (your going right?).

Great bot, loving the simplicity in the design and it seems to be very effective. Do i see a rookie regional win this year?:eek:

Re: pic: FRC 2753, Team Overdrive 2009 Robot
 

This looks great! The top container is a pretty unique design; haven't seen something like that yet.

I look forward to seeing it in action at Javits! =]

One question, what's the shooting range?

Re: pic: FRC 2753, Team Overdrive 2009 Robot
 

Good luck this year! I'll be seeing you in Trenton! The bot looks great.

Re: pic: FRC 2753, Team Overdrive 2009 Robot
 

There Banebot 540 with fisherprices put in them. There a little hard to come by since there being replaced with the new P60 gearboxes but a few online robot stores have them still.

Which reduction did you use?

Re: pic: FRC 2753, Team Overdrive 2009 Robot
 

For NJ and NYC regional it was a 36:1 on the main belt, and 25:1 on the top roller.

In Atlanta we changed it to 25:1 on the main belt and 16:1 on the top roller.
