Wink Re: 2015 OPR After Week One Events

Ed,
Thanks for the update. Your efforts make it a lot easier for Team 86 and surely others to find the diamond in the rough.

Talking Re: Week 5 OPR - All regionals / districts and World Ranking

Ed,
I agree with the 70-75% prediction of the combined OPRs during the qualification rounds. However usually the playoffs are above 85% in prediction correlation. I looked at 59 regionals and the...

Smile Re: Current Draw vs. Stall current

Depending on tire slippage, friction, motor loading, etc expect ~5:1 gear ratio for 4" wheels at 15FPS.
5,300 RPM x 80% / [15FPS x 60sec/min / (3.14 x 4"Dia/12)]
Check your calculations. Perhaps you...

Regional Ranking: New Scouting Database from Team 2834

Your data is also useful in determining the strongest regional. Using the average OPR of the top 24 robots a strength rating is created as follows:

There is something wrong with the world rank sheet. It shows Team 86 with 16 wins and 6 losses. We only have 9W-6L with the playoff games. Our only competition was the Florida...

Smile Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting

I have not used RPI in the past since it has such a narrow range of data like 0.16 to 0.40. Obviously higher is better as an indicator of strength of schedule and wins. However its relationship to...

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting

Question Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting

Did the OPR miss the mark for the Florida Regional? The alliance of 1251 + 1612 + 86 won the whole shebang with a combined OPR of 5.4 versus alliances with group OPRs of 9.9, 9.2, 7.1, 6.4, 5.6, 5.2,...

Cool Re: P60 planetaries gearboxes

Re: Offensive Power Rankings for 2008

Joe,
The Hawaii data for 233 is 53.16 pts versus 35.63 pts at the Florida regional. This 18 point change in OPR probably reflects on the fact that the current matrix mathematics would need a...

Question Re: Offensive Power Rankings for 2008

Question Re: Offensive Power Rankings for 2008

Sumadin
Your latest OPR must have an error (86 1.478877681). All the previous OPR data runs had Team 86 with an OPR between 8.8 and 9.2 points. Our actual average for the Florida Regional was 11.5...
