How does this latch onto the tower? It appears as if the wheel shafts/positions are fixed...

Re: pic: Team 1504 minibot final
Also confused... Little explantion?

Re: pic: Team 1504 minibot final
My guess is magnets.

Re: pic: Team 1504 minibot final
Ah. It appears to be magnet based. It kind of resembles one of our prototypes. :D

Re: pic: Team 1504 minibot final
What kind of switch is that little red/blue one on the left end? Is that a Tetrix switch or a common household light switch?

Re: pic: Team 1504 minibot final
It looks like a limit switch to me.

It uses two neodymium magnets. They are still testing so I doin't know what the speeds are. |
Re: pic: Team 1504 minibot final
How big are the magnets and where did you get them?

Re: pic: Team 1504 minibot final
I found some magnets that we are going to try from McMaster-Carr.
Ultra-High-Pull Neodymium Ring Magnet 1" OD, 1/2" ID, 1/2" Thick, 21.4 Pull lbs. Part # 3360K79My thought is to add a small bearing in the center and mount it so that it allows the minibot to travel in the vertical plane without falling away from the pole. |
