Re: Rockcrawler

i still dont get why this question was asked here. If you are refering that a mentor helped, nope. All student built in under an hour. we have one mentor for FRC and he just basically makes sure we dont kill oursleves. But student had to have come first.


Rockcrawler has been updated. We are finalizing the design, but its now 4 wheel drive with 4 motors and only knobby wheels. Independent suspension worked less effective than the suspension we had, so it will remain the same as it was. The new 4 wd now can go UP a stack of books about 4-5 with little trouble by grabing onton the lips of the pages and going up and over. I also looked at the Inventor Guide and redid the way we controll the robot, its in 4wd Arcade Mode or something like that, but the design is what matters most though. I think i spent a good hour and a half playing with the new design today in the robotics/physics classroom that robotics is in. Ill try and make a new video after AP exams next week.
