Looks like a good start 816. 222 is taking a 3x5 box channel approach that bolts together we should have some pics. to share soon.

This frame is awesome. Rather light, rigid, and easy to use. I'd love to have one of these some year. Should be sick.

6" AM Plaction wheels. I've yet to find something better for the price. We used and abused them last year and after 5 competitions we only had one wheel showing minor damage.

Hopefully, if all goes well tonight, I should be able to post up a picture of a 90% complete drive-base tomorrow morning. :D

looking good... team 571 as many of you might know have alway built wood chassis... but in 2011 we are making the first alluminum chassis in the teams history... our chassis will be made out of good old 1x1 box stock... good luck too all the teams... a teaser will be available shortly

Great start Dustin! Looking forward to seeing what your manipulator looks like. Hopefully we will run into each other at champs.

Thanks!

As far as the manipulator, we're leaning towards a 4-Bar with Roller claw, but there's still a bit up in the air due to the whole Banebots 775 Transmission Mystery.

Yeah man we decided just to use 2 of the 550's to power our elevator since they are so equal in power and the transmissions were available

What kind of reduction are you guys putting those through? I've heard that the 550s are delicate and don't handle load very well...

They're delicate in the sense that you cant abuse them and stall them, but as long as you design for them and dont stall them it shouldn't be a problem. If we find theyre not holding up we can always switch to the 775's but I think we will be fine.

We're running 2 through a 32:1 reduction to a 2.5" pulley. Under full load they will only be drawing 20 amps collectively. Our elevator is light :cool:

What configuration (ie: gear ratios) of the Supershifter are you gonna be running? aka: what speeds are you shooting for?

Haha, of course it's light. I got to crunching some numbers and it seems like that route seems a lot better than the 4 window motors were going to throw together.
