Re: Vex Slider Parts

im sure Jeff can explain more if i dont hit it, but the winch is on the most right o the picture. Judging from what i have seen and from the picture, the L bracket is used and the motor overhangs the top so the gear on the winch will be in the middle of the bracket.. Motors on both sides of the winc, or maybe just one, cant tell from the picture and cant remember, but i think it may only be one. Those two gears i think are to keep the string in place. If any other questions, im sure jeff can answer, but i think i covered what i think you wanted. Anyways, 599 is my teams robot, so i couldnt tell you full indepth about Chaminade's. They have a very interesting design to scoring. Anyways, i got to get some sleep, my team is coming over tomorrow to discuss stuff before atlanta, im secondary coach, so i need to be rested to give my team good spirit and hope.

Oh, I think devil duckies used sliders on one of their robots in SD, if i remember right, they too said they need to be straight, because they had problems sticking if they were not positioned correctly. So make sure the two are parrallel, and not off. I could be mistaken though, but I sort of remember that little quick note when setting up their fields in SD.
