Re: 2011 Logomotion Mini Bots
I don't know if two minibots on the same robot would be beneficial. If you build a system to hook it up to your alliance member's bot, then not only could both poles be climbed faster, but you get a "coopertition" point for sharing your second minibot. And my team uses FTC to train our rookies to get ready for FRC, so to shed light on the battery life, our battery usually is changed probably once during an all day competition. The NXT brick usually lasts all day. If you charge the Tetrix battery between matches, it will be fine. The NXT brick just takes double A's, so even if it runs out of battery (which is unlikely), it should be easy to change batteries. If you don't mind, I think I may digress for a second. Has anyone attempted to reverse-engineer the minibots from the video? I think I may have been able to build it on CAD, but I don't know how well it would work.
