Re: Team 449 Kicker Prototype Videos
Sure, basically right now we have the kicker assembled as two bars coming down perpendicular from a main axle (parallel with the front of the robot), and a bar between the two. There's a bar in the middle of the kicker, and another on the front of the robot (which functions as a hard stop), and latex goes between the two.
We're not totally sure how well this mechanism will translate into the robot though, because the mechanisms so that a motor will pull it back, or release it are still being worked on. We got it to pull back decently (once the motor arrives), but aren't entirely sure if our release will be strong enough.
