Re: 222 Tigertrons Rebound Rumble
Thanks guys our team has really worked hard on these two. We've had the practice bot (AKA spaghetti monster) mostly functional for 2 weeks or so. All systems are very simple mechanisms and are proving to be very reliable. Our programming team has been working on fine tuning several key shots for our strategy and our autonomous mode.
The collector is our swiss army knife. We don't usually like to put all our eggs in one basket, but we are pleased with how well we can collect balls and use the collector for bridge control. We can also spit balls back out of the roller if there is a a jam or to feed a team mate.
The Tigerdrive is mainly unchanged this year except for a bearing swap on our input gear cluster and some housekeeping on the shifting cylinder mount.
Again thanks for the compliments. We hope to put on a good show for everyone Good luck to everyone in your competitions!
