Re: basic chassis (the supplied one) diagrams and directions

I havent seen any new diagrams, however I think last year's diagrams are still usable in this situation.

Re: basic chassis (the supplied one) diagrams and directions

Hey,

My team is also looking for a diagram (and instructions) of the drive train... I do have the exploded diagram of the drive train from last year off of the FIRST website (2003 Archived Documents), but it's not detailed enough for us.

Thanks,
Vienny

Re: basic chassis (the supplied one) diagrams and directions

Some photos of the sprocket drive system are posted in the gallery.

http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/pi...DESC&sort=date

This prototype device was constructed to illustrate how a sprocket system could be built from the kit. It is not an optimum design.

The manufactured pieces include:
1. duplicating the two flat clamping plates in the kit (which can be done by drilling flat plates)
2. delrin spaces (washers) between the sprocket and inner bearing and between the outer bearing and the wheel
3. HDPE mounted on 2x4 pieces for the skid plates.

I'm happy to answer questions about the prototype. Feel free to email me.

Re: basic chassis (the supplied one) diagrams and directions

Hey Everybody,

I've been playing around on this site and I found this:

http://www.usfirst.org/robotics/2004...ve_Systems.pdf

It's the Powerpoint presentation presented to the ROokies teams at the Rookie Workshop. It appears to have a pretty step by step assembly (I haven't tried it yet, though, so I don't know how easy it is).

THis is what we're planning on doing, maybe it'll help one of you.
