254
Team 254 (Cheesy Poofs)
# of years of participation? 5 years
# and type of motors? 2 drills this year
# and type of drive wheels? 4 6"X1" custom wheels with blue tread material (forgot where from)
# and type of non-drive wheels? caster dropped down with a pneumatic cylinder only for autonomous steering
Transfer system(chains, belts, etc.)? serpintine chain
Transmission (not including supplied ones)? none other than supplied drill transmissions, which we shifted with servos
Steering? during autonomous we dropped down an angled caster
Sensors? none
Success? yes! no breakdowns at Nats, we drove well, getting to the boxes in 3.8 s in auton, but by shifting could still outpush most robots
Problems?, a few problems with the transmissions at SVR
Next year? gears not chain (we broke a master link in a match at SVR and chain is a pain)
