Re: under 2 sec Mini bot
Does anyone have specs on the TETRIX motor with the gearbox removed?

I would check the legality of that in the Q&A. In the current context of the rules, it seems like it may be legal to remove the gearbox, but it's better to be safe than sorry. |

Re: under 2 sec Mini bot

Well, turn me over and call me Sally. Looks like I should have done a search.

Re: under 2 sec Mini bot
So with the max power outputs of the motors and the weight of two motors and a battery, you could calculate the absolute maximum minibot speed. Anybody know how much the motors and battery weigh?

Re: under 2 sec Mini bot
I just ran it without the gearbox and no load: @12v 7700 RPM, @14v 9100RPM. I'm not sure about the available torque.

Re: under 2 sec Mini bot
Two seconds up the pole is definitely feasible.
![]() Two seconds, from breaking the plane to hitting the trigger, that's the challenge. |

Re: under 2 sec Mini bot
Make the weight work for you so increases traction

Re: under 2 sec Mini bot
I expect that if you're using any tetrix parts besides the bare motors, wheels, and battery, you're not building the fastest minibot you could

Re: under 2 sec Mini bot
I wouldn't be surprised to find out that if you are using the Tetrix wheels you are not building the fastest minibot you could.

Re: under 2 sec Mini bot
You're probably right. Sheet aluminum or polycarbonate and latex tubing is looking pretty good.
