I can't wait to see you guys. I love the single stage arm, such a simple concept yet i am sure it was quite the engineering challenge. also the lights are pretty amazing. 4 days till jersey!

ps. you should play skrillex straight from the robot

Dubstep YAY. Your robot is great I especially like the driver station its really cool.

:eek: Great job.

Fantastic work. Your control station is brilliant. I'm curious to see where your minibot deployer will fit.

Ike- when do we get to see 33.....

Tobot - its fitting to one of the sides. You will see it in action by end of thursday.


Thanks everyone for your votes of confidence, I know there are still far greater machines under wraps, ala 469 from last year..

I am sure we will see some great stuff before its all said and done.

So rediculously awesome! I hope you make it to St. Louis, I want to check this thing out in person. Super clean approach.

The typical questions: any particular reason for 8wd? What motors do you have driving the arm up/down and in/out?

Re: FRC2016 Mighty Monkey Wrenches 2011 Robot Video
 

Thanks, definitely one of the cleanest bots I have ever worked on.

Smaller turning circle, more stable, and better traction.

Arm up/down is done by 2 window motors, in/out is done by 1 FP.

For those wondering here is our minibot in close to final configuration..

Have fun as week 1 begins!!!

Great robot, guys!
