Re: Team 3637 Fully Functional Robot with Scissor Lift and Arm - Video and Pics

Any motor in the KOP is capable of lifting your scissor lift up and down, just the rate at which they can do it changes.

This is the "wattage" spec on each of the motors, the rate at which it can convert electrical energy to mechanical energy.

for rough numbers a denso is around 22 watts
and this years FP is around ~250?

meaning the FP will be able to move your scissor lift approximately 10 times faster for the same given load, or the same speed and 10x the load.
