Re: [MCC] Minimum Competive Concept 2016

I think 1710 had a really good example of an MCC bot this year. We were low, able to cross all defenses but the drawbridge independently, only shot low goals, and had a solid intake. We even scored a...

Re: 1710 Low Goal Scoring Autonomous Modes

Yeah we couldn't believe it worked either to be honest! It was all done with the use of the navX sensor's gyro. That thing is awesome. Really easy to install and almost as easy to program with. We...

Re: Did FIRST buy a Snapchat geofilter for Worlds?

They may not have but Team 1710 did!
We have two filters that will be available in the pits and at the innovation fair!

Re: Getting pitch from navX sensor

First of all, your example vi that contains all the readouts from the NavX is amazing. It turns out that the Roll value was what I needed instead of Pitch. I'll mess around with the bot tonight and...

Re: Getting pitch from navX sensor

To clarify, the value being fed out of the unbundle by name vi is always 0. 0E-3 to be exact. The pitch angle is definitely the value we want. I know it's not working properly because the value never...

Getting pitch from navX sensor

We are trying to read the "pitch" value that is build into the YPRHfH vi in autonomous but have been unsuccessful so far. We are using it to find when the bot has driven over a defense or has gotten...

Re: 2016 Smoky Mountains Regional

It was definitely a brownout. I attached a folder with 4 screenshots of our logs. The first one is of a random match from Friday to show what a normal match would look like for us. The other two are...

Re: 2016 Smoky Mountains Regional

Re: FIRST Championship in Snapchat

bump. Snapchat now has an "On Demand" geofilter option that allows businesses and the like to pay for a filter over a designated area for a designated time. I did a cost approximation for the dome in...

Re: 2016 Smoky Mountains Regional

1710 from Olathe, KS is excited to attend! We're ready to take the 13 hour drive down. Does anyone know where the pits will be located in regards to the field by chance?

Re: navX MXP without PID control

Yes. And IMO PID isn't actually the best option when rotating to an angle. PID is good for maintaining something like flow rate or temperature over time. What we have done in the past is take the...
