Re: Wildstang 2012: After The Game

Thank you for spending the time to put together these videos. I love seeing the details in the design of successful robots.
I thought the lexan mounts on your first intake roller were brilliant. Allowing it to flex on impact makes a lot more sense than trying to make it strong enough not to break.
The drive modules are pretty cool too. The wrap around bearing mounts look like a good way to accomplish adjustable center distance chain tensioning. Were they made out of C channel or a piece of rectangular extrusion? What are the advantages of enclosing the chains? We built a belt drive in the off season with belts inside a square tube, and it made things pretty challenging to assemble and repair.
The drop down landing gear seemed like a great way to get over the barrier. Between the landing gear and the wedge you built for championships, which one do you think was more effective?
