Before I even see the CAD model, I want to ask: why did you decide to build a dedicated Outreach Demo bot? Surely any robots from past games, especially Stronghold, would be fine for most demos. What can this specialized outreach bot do that any regular robot cannot?
I'm guessing that one of the reasons is to make a prototyping bot to put things on top of. I'm having trouble imagining what would happen if the prototyping robot happens to not fit a specific design. Has this kind of thing been done before?
Now, on to the actual CAD:
- How do you guys plan on mounting bumpers?
- Access to the chain or the inner side of the shaft is blocked. If this things is suppose to run for years and years, maintenance is more important than it is for a regular FRC robot.
- er, I'm going to assume the battery mount isn't finished yet either
- you can use something like Versaframe instead to increase mounting versatility
- What resources/tools does your team have to make something like this?
Btw, is that the black anodized 80/20 from mcmasters? Nice touch.
