Re: pic: Team 2502 Chassis Teaser
it seem too heavy
:eek: |
Re: pic: Team 2502 Chassis Teaser
How heavy is heavy? With gearboxes, motors, electronics, the calculated weight is 50lb...
And I can lift this with one arm. Easier to lift with two arms.. |

For sake of comparison our chassis with 4 CIMs, mechanum wheels and all 4 gear boxes is less than 35 pounds...
For what it's worth, we've gone the 80/20 route. While it's great for prototyping and testing, we've found it's far too heavy for competition use. We've since switched to welded thin-wall steel tubing and it seems to work quite well. |

It does look a bit heavy, But it also looks very strong! Good work from team 3082 (Minnetonka)! I can't wait to see this at 10,000 Lakes! What drive train are you using? It looks like it could be a swerve...Well I gues I will see in two months ::safety::

Nice chassis. One of the coolest uses of extrusion I've seen so far. Though that's not saying much. That's a lot of material, but it's material fairly low, which should be good for your CoG.
I'm intrigued with the wide orientation. Can't wait to see the rest of it, so I know why you guys took that route. |

50lbs with all electronics is plenty light, I think. Personally aiming for a 70 pound lower deck / 110 pound robot. |

Looking good :cool:
Interested on the wide base configuration |

Re: pic: Team 2502 Chassis Teaser
I will weigh it this coming monday.
And we do have a very interesting wide-configuration that will be super weird but we hope to have work out! And no swerve this year. We thought that whatever we could make would have too low of a clearance to go over the bump. Hm, did I give too much away? |
