Re: Team 172 Prototyping
We do plan on adding a simple wrist mechanism on the final design, with something close to 120 degrees of rotation around a pivot.
As for weight, the base robot still is using the old gearboxes, 4 CIM motors, and a good amount of 8020, so it is up there in weight (~110 lbs), but with the new drive train this year, and some strategic use of materials, a robot could be re engineered around the same basic design and easily save 20 lbs.
And, thanks for the heads up technoL. This robot would be pushing it in regards to <R12>, and we'll definitely look into that before we decide on something final.
