I'll definitely take a look at the CAD. It's a cool concept for a defensive bot, especially in a game were the field is effectively more narrow because of the lanes.
Thanks for sharing. |

What a task that must have been done in Catia! I've had the pleasure of using 3 different CAD softwares and I must say Catia was the most difficult to learn and use. However after learning it the other 2 programs were so easy.
As for that model I love the concept for a strong defense bot. Is it legal to put bumpers on those drop downs? I don't think there's anything against it but I'm not sure |

Re: pic: Dragonfly CAD file
two questions:
how much did the robot weigh? (without battery) Are the "legs" gravity dropped (with some kind of latch) or driven by motors? |

trolling addition - http://www.phillyrambots.com/wp-cont...a/image20.jpeg The arms were pneumatic controlled in both directions. They worked like a charm. I am still pretty sure that if we had been picked at nationals we would have gotten our team to Einstein. Our blocking ability cut our opponents scores in half on average. And that was against all skill levels. Here is some footage of us in action. http://www.atomicrobotics.com/2011/05/videos-weekend/ PS the kids were ecstatic at getting to go to St Louis, but bummed we were not picked for Curie eliminations. |

Our chances would have been higher of getting picked if it weren't for our own inexperience and lack of consistency with minibot deployment. This lack of consistency left us with only the option of playing defense, and this year, IMO, you needed 3 offensive robots to do well at better events. Just as an fyi, we will no longer be mentoring the South Philly high school team, but will be coming back with a newly formed, larger, and better supported program. |

I think 3553 would have been an asset had they had EITHER a consistent Ubertube or Minibot to contribute. |

Correct if im wrong, but i dont believe they had a scoring mechanism (right?....) Or are you just pointing out the importance in an ubertube or minibot |
