Re: My Hopper/Dumper Idea
The Robot in 3 days videos are awesome! I'm glad someone is doing the rapid prototyping early on...hopefully it will give us an idea sometime this week what works regarding the shooter. We had issues last year prototyping wayyyyy too long.
And for some teams (like ours and it sounds like yours), there are limits to how much you can do in 6 weeks. Some teams out there will get the shooting and climbing to level three down, but for us we have to decide what combination to go with in order to be successful. The climbing and dumping is an option for us, along with a good shooter and climbing level one. With the space decrease this year it would be a huge design problem to get both done.

All the same lessons that can be learned or taught with custom drive trains can also be learned or taught with custom manipulators and scoring mechanisms, and the latter is far more likely to set your team apart in the competition. - Jared Russell [more]
