Re: pic: MVRT's robot plan (95% done)
Where will you be mounting your battery, main breaker and motor controllers? I would suggest you get the generic electrical schematic drawing and "follow the power flow" from the battery through the main breaker, PDP, motor controllers to the motors and lay out your components that way. Allow at least 1 inch around all sides of the main electrical components (RoboRio, PDP, PCM, VRM) for routing your wiring.
In your current design, the wires coming out of one side of your PDP will catch on one of the cylinders for your climbing mechanism. You will also have trouble getting the tool into the Wago's on that side. On the other side, the wires coming out of your PDP will have to run over the router. This will make it difficult and messy to remove your router for programming at each tournament you go to.
Can you use the empty space between your current electronics panel and the boulder collector mechanism or is that space reserved for future enhancements?
