But it is the real robot...

I know... It's very obvious for anyone who has tuned into the NJ regional webcast.

Their driveframe in 07 also used large rectangular tubing versus the current plate setup.

man, those are some big gears on that drivetrain!
(I know you guys do this every year, but why don't you use chain?)

snide remarks about it looking similar aside, that is a nice robot! Good luck tomorrow and Saturday! :)

(maybe I'll be able to drop by on saturday and see it in person :] )

What material are the giant drivetrain gears, if you don't mind my asking? They look almost like brass to me, but I imagine that would wear very quickly...?

I think 25 purchases their gears from Boston Gear, if so, the spur gears they sell are steel and brass.

That would make these gears... steel or brass? Or steel and brass?

Like Snapple the best stuff just got better

Differences from 07 to note
1. Pneumatic grip and tilt
2. 6 wheel drive
3. Tire dia totally different
4. Drive chassis new design note motor placement
5. Count the tower sections
6. Tower lift is 8xfaster. We programmed it to 1/10. Speed to keep it from killing itself and others
7. Haven't had on board compressor in years

Now if we could get that blastedminibot on thepost there would be something else to see

Monkey wrenches have a minibot that amazes. Rightnow they are the team to beat at NJ

..... the tower is programmed to 1/10 speed? That thing is by far the fastest and smoothest lift I've seen this year.

Oh, and the Drivetrain seems a bit different aside from what you listed. I meant to ask Shaun about it, but it appears way more agile than previous 25 robots.

Perhaps they lowered finally lowered the center wheels, they are well known for not lowering in previous years. I still swear they used some sort of black magic to make 8 of those Skyway wheels on the floor turn with (fast) single speed gearing.
