Laser Dragon | 2587 DiscoBots | Final Showcase 2012
Introducing the Laser Dragon.
 Vimeo: http://vimeo.com/37359670 Drivetrain: 27x32 long axis chassis. 4 drive wheels, 4 raised bump climbing wheels. Collection and Indexing System: "Indexerator", this poly cord stage is loaded by the mouth stage. Its purpose is to store and index balls. Holds 3 balls. It feeds the shooter. "Mouth", this polycord stage raises the balls from the ground and feeds them to the Indexerator. "Whackolector", Bridge-Whacker with built in collector roller spun by a RS550 with 20:1 P60 and ~7:1 external poly cord pulleys. The Whackolector is raised and lowered by a RS550 with a 256:1 P60 gearbox. It feeds the mouth. Shooter: Single wheel and adjustable hood shooter (30 to 60 degree range). The two AM 7.5 inch Pneumatic wheels are powered by 2 Fischer Price motors on a CIMSIM. Shoots 40 feet up and 30 feet forward at minimum hood angle (30 degrees). Arc and range are adjusted by changing the angle of the hood and speed of the wheels. Sounds like a Tron Light Bike when spinning down. Read our daily build season log and watch our weekly videos here on our website: http://2012.discobots.org/node/31 CAD model will be submitted to frc-designs.com soon. We will be competing at Lone Star Regional this year. See ya on the field! Nick Dulworth |
