Re: Who Has Changed there Robot Design?

Changed the stopping mecanism on our ramps so each lift is worth 12" every time. It required about 20 minutes of work.

Other than that, we added a variety of autonomous modes, and used some surgical tubing to tension our tube scoring elevator upwards for faster and less stressful lifting.

We also turned a custom machined bracket for our grabber into two pieces of angle aluminum with drilled holes (KISS).
