This picture makes me want to start a "highest average density" competition

Re: pic: 234 - Cyber Blue R2V1 Top
 

Seconded.

We have never built a robot this small - the frame is 15-1/2" tall, and our biggest challenge was getting everything into the space, especially after needing about 10" in the front for the kicker arm.

Im liking the blue anodize! We anodized are a very similar shade of blue.

what encoders/pots are used to control the swerve?
(the little blue ones chained to the steering window motor on each side)

Re: pic: 234 - Cyber Blue R2V1 Top
 

The encoders are US Digital, and I believe they came from Andymark (AM-0174).

I will find out on the pots, but they are most likely from Kings.

The front wheels are tied together and the rear wheels are tied together, with a window motor turning each set.

We have an encoder on one front and one rear wheel.

We have a pot tied to a sprocket off of the window motor.

It looks great! It must have taken a good bit of planning and CAD modeling to design your robot. Just out of curiosity, where is the battery hiding? Under the compressor?

Re: pic: 234 - Cyber Blue R2V1 Top
 

how is your compressor mounted sideways? I dont see any shock mounts on it and even if there were there is no room for the compressor to shake.

Re: pic: 234 - Cyber Blue R2V1 Top
 

The battery is in the "back", between the rear wheels - it slides in "connectors first".

The compressor is mounted to polycarbonate, with rubber washers between the compressor and the poly. The poly flexes a little, the washers absorb a little.

It looks totally awesome and pretty too (I'm a girl what much do you want me to say besides that it looks pretty). Good Luck at competition. :)
