Re: How much does your robot weigh?
We are at 70 lbs in cad.
And that is without electronics and pneumatic [no compressor].
We should be just about 110 fully loaded.

That HAS to go in my signature!

On an unrelated note, I probably just described myself. Haven't gone on an all caps rage yet, but there's always time...

Re: How much does your robot weigh?
no really we don't want our "shooter" flying off the robot and we need the battery weight to hold it down.

Re: How much does your robot weigh?
The first iteration weighs approximately 120 pounds, without any weight reduction techniques. This is very strange for our team

CAD is a lifesaver.

Drive itself is 86 lb, with the electronics board, about 90 lb.

Re: How much does your robot weigh?
In CAD? 93 lbs + chain and fasteners (should bring it up to about 110).

In real life? About 20. (Yeah we're behind )

On the bright side, you may be the lightest robot at SVR! How easy will it be to balance the bridge with three robots when one of them weighs 1/6th of the maximum weight!

Re: How much does your robot weigh?
As of last night, with all major components mounted, approximately 107lbs.

BTW batteries weigh ~13lbs, weight adds up with 6awg wire on the battery though.

Re: How much does your robot weigh?
We are looking at around 70-80 completely finished with no reduction techniques. and a note to everyone using autodesk- it does have CAD weight issues that can be as high as 20-30 lbs off. Solidworks is around 1-2 lbs off. But in autodesk try to manually enter each parts' weight for a better estimate
