22 motors?
Does any team see themselves using 22 motors this year? Is there any actual reason to utilize 22 motors?

Yeah, that "You can use 22 motors this year!!!!1!!" thing was just to get us excited this year or something. All the motors are restricted to only 2 allowed, and CIMs are just 4. With like 8 different types of motors, it sounds like a lot but it doesn't really amount to anything.

Hmm.. 22 times what, $109 for a Jaguar speed controller.. Thats $2,398 in speed controllers alone.. Of course you could use Spike relays on some, but then you lose the ability to slow that motor down those few RPM's you need :rolleyes:

I wouldn't rule out van door motors from previous years' KOP, fisher-price or banebots 775 motors yet. Plenty of solutions.

You folks seriously need to check out the Robonauts 2008 video.
With 8 motors in the drive train, that's only 14 more to scatter around the robot! |

yes, we plan on using 22. to do this we have decided on a very simply 15wd chassis that will get us over the bump in a breeze.
