Re: pic: ThunderChickens Electrical & Base

The robot looks great, that’s some of the neatest wiring I’ve seen a while, and you absolutely will have one of the most visible robots in first this year, with your color scheme.

Best of luck to the T-Chickens where ever they travel this year.

Re: pic: ThunderChickens Electrical & Base

look beautiful! Would I be correct in guessing that a 4-bar gets mounted to that pivot? I believe that it is an AM single speed and a globe, very similar to the globe>kit tranny you used in 2005. Either way, I think it is a contender.

I could have told you that 4 weeks ago.

I'm curious how many pieces make up the tower. Two vertical side peices and plates for the electronics?

Re: pic: ThunderChickens Electrical & Base

This has to be one of my favorite robots I have seen so far this year. They did amazing lat year, but I see success in their future. I'm just upset that I won't get to see it until atlanta.

Re: pic: ThunderChickens Electrical & Base

The tower has 4 corner pieces (0.090" Al), 2 side pieces (0.0625" Al), a front piece (0.0625" Al), back piece (0.0625" Al), top plate (0.0625" Al), and two middle plates for Victor and controller placement. The two middle plates are Lexan.

No, there is not a 4 bar on the robot.
