If any team wants to mold some enormous Archimedes screws like those, I'd bet you win some kind of technical award. Making weight would be fun though... :p |

With 130+lbs on the screws good luck not damaging the carpet from driving or getting pushed around.

I'm not saying it would be ideally suited for any games other than those containing the fabled FRC water hazards; but it could be fun to make. If you chose the materials carefully, you might be able to create a fun off-road machine that isn't stymied by swampy terrain, and that is also at home on FRC carpets. Blake |

Cam drive. Worst mobility, best entertainment quality. You can only rotate the wheels in one direction, and if the wheels are placed on out of phase, you have this crazy tumbling thing. If put on in phase, you have a sort-of robot low rider that can pounce onto objects. If put on reflected, it's like a carousel.
How cool! |
Re: Crazy Drive Train Ideas
Haha as cool as some of these ideas are, like the snake one :yikes: , i was more looking for odd wheel arrangements like the close center wheel 6 wheel that 548swimmer posted a few weeks ago. We were also planing on making a jump drive before it even came on chief delphi, stuff like that.

Is the video perhaps a fake? |

I highly doubt that the video is a fake, here is the inventor's website, with all of the earlier and later versions. |
