Dulce's First tele-op tube

Torque issues aside, that arm looks fantastic.

Is it just me, or does the gripper stick out past the chassis on one side? I'm assuming this will be fixed down the line?

Are you concerned that your arm will get caught up on the bumper when pulling up / back?

Is the arm fully inside the robot when it is up? It looks like it might be but The tube blocks the bottom of your gripper. Also can you reach the top peg?

Otherwise it looks nice. Hopefully I can get video of our lifter up soon

Its a prototype. We will fix the dimension issues.

I know 842 has gone thru a lot of calculations to figure out what size and how long of latex springs to use. There might be more friction in the arm than anticipated...although I think the joints use ball bearings.

It's neat to see it running at last! I know they'll get it sorted out...hopefully I'll get to see it Feb 19 at Duel in the Desert
