Re: pic: FTC KOP inside SolidWorks

Let us know if we missed any component. We bought Tetrix Kits directly from Pitsco.

Please use these new models. The older models were off by 1/100's so multiple concentric hole mates were off.

Also, SolidWorks Tetrix defeatured models are vey light weight - better for purchased parts that you can't modify. Do teams need a fully featured model for purchased components? Your advice back to us would be great.

Let us know your pain points in design and we can assist. Interference detection, Stop at Collision are helpful tools in the Assembly. You can assemble the robot and insert a tool from the "tools folder" to see if you can actually assemble the robot with such tight spaces between components using a screw driver or wrench.

If you dont have SolidWorks, Pitsco is a SolidWorks customer and their Tetrix components are available in all file formats on www.3DContentCentral.com.

Good luck in the competition. Marie
