we are at 60 pounds with a working drivetrain and battery. this scares me because this leave only 70 pounds for the rest of the robot. what do you think?
Actually your on track. We are around the same weight area for our robot and we expect to be underweight.
36 pound frame
16 pound battery
16 pounds compressor
20 pounds completed gearbox assembly(with wheels)
10 pounds motors and nuts
That is 98 pounds with a an almost complete robot like you have it. Add a few extra pounds for control system and electronics and guess what you don't have to drill any holes in your robot. Of course our robot is a simple design and I'm estimating some of the objects weight on the heavy side
