Re: How fast?

Engineer on team #111, Wildstang, from Rolling Meadows & Wheeling HS and Motorola. In Reply to: How fast? Posted by Michael on 2/1/2001 3:09 PM EST: If you are using just the 2 drill motors geared to a top speed of about 5 feet/sec. you should still get plenty of thrust assuming you have good traction. Raul : Well, with just over two weeks remaining until the ship date, there's finally some visible progress with our robot (It seems that things go slowly wherever I work). : : Anyway, our first tests showed our robot moving at a little more than .5 m/s. That is atrociously slow for a game that depends so heavily on time, and we are trying to regear it to make it a bit faster without making those stupid drill motors overheat. : Anyway, can anyone else give me an idea of how fast your robot moves? I know you can get 'em going pretty fast, but we're hoping to avoid sacrificing as much power as possible, so that we can still move the goals around. : ~ Michael ~ : |
