Re: FIRST Team 1710 Logomotion Robot
I saw these videos go up last night, and I was very impressed. Everything is fast. The drivetrain looks fast, the elevator is fast, and the minibot is pretty zippy too.
Autonomous looks solid. Are you using line sensors or a camera for guidance, or just aiming it when placing it on the field and counting on the wheels to drive strait?
Does your transmission shift between 2 speeds, or is it single speed only?
Your minibot vid stoped after it hit the pole. I assume that the motors shut off with a limit switch at the top of the pole. Does it come down on its own power, or stay at the top?
Again, it looks great. Can't wait to see it in action at KC, hopefully on the same side of the field.
