Re: pic: 294 Teaser #2
Not tall enough to be a flippable robot.
I like the chassis though. No idea why. :) |
Re: pic: 294 Teaser #2
Wow! The machining that was done to cut weight on the inside of those plates looks awesome! Flip the plates and show it off! Its quite a beauty. We're planning on doing that, and it'll be quite a looker. Hahaha I guess I missed the point of the teaser, but regardless, I like it

Once again, great frames. Is that wheel design any different from previous years? New iteration perhaps? |
Re: pic: 294 Teaser #2
the two robots stacked on top of each other remind me of THIS mishap...
that frame has a history of GREAT defense.... |

Thanks for the kind words. The wheels are a new iteration of the wheels on our 2008 robot. 7 inch diameter instead of 4 accommodates 1 inch wide tread The spokes are beefed up a bit to handle all of the robot weight shifting forward over the bump. Our main sponsor Northrop Grumman did an excellent job machining the wheels and sideplates. |
Cool Robot
:cool: You should post a video on youtube to see it drive over the bump.:cool:

Yeah, it's not actually a flipping robot; there's just a clone stacked ontop of the original:
1. It's too short... a flipping robot requires the bumper zone to be legal upside and downside down. 2. I think Greg Needel is right - looks like there's too many CIMS. 3. The two long aluminum panels are slightly crooked, you can tell if you examine the zoomed-in picture closely. 4. Why fillet the corners of the midline, if it's one unit? |
Re: pic: 294 Teaser #2
5. Why on earth would you make a sideplate out of 2 pieces instead of 1, especially when you have the option to do 1 instead of 2?

Re: pic: 294 Teaser #2

Re: pic: 294 Teaser #2
We'll post a video when we get all of the chain and electronics on. :)
