Team 2992 - 30 pt Climber - Top target dumper

We have completed enough of our robot to finally showcase how we are gonna climb to 30 pts and dump frisbees on the top for 20 pts.

This week we will be finishing the wiring and plumbing and doing the final Cg adjustments to make it work.

To begin, this link takes you to a simulation we performed on the CAD robot to show everyone how we expect it to climb.

Our other video shows us doing the first 2 levels to make sure that the robot, as built, performed as required. You will notice weight cupcakes zip tied all over the robot to make sure our robot is at the proper weight and Cg.

We plan to have the robot climbing under its own brains this weekend and when we get video of that, I will post it to this topic.

Enjoy! We look forward to your comments and questions.
