Re: Team 195 Robot Video

I love the swerve and your shooter. Your bridges appear to not be weighted, are you worried you ramp push down isn't strong enough? Other than that I really like the robot!

Awesome looking robot. I love the wheelie getting on the bridge that was just pure awesomeness.

Thanks! Without your help it probably wouldn't be running as well as it does!

On our practice field the alliance bridges (the blue and orange ones) are not weighted but the middle white bridge is weighted and passes "the battery test."

It's a possibility

What motor do you have driving your bridge tipper, with what reduction?
FisherPrice motor, I'm not 100% sure what the reduction is. I'll double-check later.

Re: Team 195 Robot Video

Loving the swerve drive! Totally awesome. The shooter looks good as well. The way you go on the bridge at 2:17 is awesome and funny lol. WOW!

Is it designed to do that? Or does it just work like that?

Good Luck!

No problem; I'm happy to hear you got it running. If you never need me, I'm always happy to lend a hand (consider it a "thank you" for letting us use your field). Best of luck this season!

Hi! yes, we do have one weighted ramp we use for practice. Not all of them are weighted. Seems strong enough.

Re: Team 195 Robot Video

Great Robot guys! It was even more impressive in person. Team 1099 greatly appreciates Team 195 inviting us to your field last weekend to practice. It greatly helped us. We'd love to get together soon. Good luck at NYC, and we'll see you at CT

Re: Team 195 Robot Video

I like the swerve modules with the integrated ramps to go over the bump! I've always been a fan of swerve, and this looks like a very slick implementation.

How has your shooting accuracy been? It looks like you have been making a high number of shots from the video.
