 Many students I have met will insist that nothing is better than FIRST robotics. And most people would agree that a ham sandwich is better than nothing. So does it logically follow that a ham sandwich is better than FIRST robotics? - tsaksa [more] |

Elevator/pulley help!!
I am a part of a rookie team and need help with a design for an elevator/pulley that can lift about 60-70 lbs?
Our team has thought about something like this: https://onedrive.live.com/redir?resi...nt=photo%2cjpg I would like to know whether this design is realistic and where I can improve? I would also appreciate any recommendation on what to use for the motor without burning it, as well as, the material for the cable. Thank You, Team 4939, AllSpark9

Re: Elevator/pulley help!!
Adam Heard has some videos about Elevator Design among other things in this Video Playlist
This video goes through a lot of the math involved. Also - be on the lookout for the Robot in 3 Days Videos. Several of the teams have already demonstrated some elevator designs that could start you on the right path. I hope that helps.
