1515 Presents: Daedalus

On behalf of Team 1515, MorTorq, I present our 9th competition robot: Daedalus.

I want to thank our hardworking mentors, generous sponsors and talented students for their commitment to the team and its betterment.

We really feel this was a year of big improvement for us and we are proud of our accomplishments and most importantly are excited to compete at the San Diego and Los Angeles regionals these coming weeks.

Specifications:
• 2 Speed WCD (with WCP's Dual Speed Shifters): 16 and 6 FPS
• 4x1.5" Colsons on WCP Bearing Blocks
• Drop-down ground/feeder intake
• 3-frisbee storage (via simple linear path)
• Dual-conveyor indexer
• 2-wheeled shooter using VersaPlanetary gearboxes and 3x1.5" Colsons
• Passive 10PT climbing mechanism
• Modular superstructure (detaches in under 3 minutes)
• Weight: 90 lb


(As a side note, we are really loving the black satin powdercoat)
