Re: Be afraid... Be VERY Afraid

Just wanted to say that I read every thread in this post for the past half hour, and I'm unequivocally impressed with both the innovative design efforts of the students and mentors in FRC, as well as the level of technical expertise and quality discussion on CD.

Daniel and the rest of Team 714, I think the design is impressive, the modeling is fantastic, and overall you deserve a ton of credit for presenting your idea and working through the constructive criticism on this board. Regardless or whether this is the most efficient design out there or not specifically for the application of an FRC drivetrain, I truly hope to see you follow through and make a finished product out of it (and post videos!!) ... because this is what innovation is all about. After all, FRC is the best place to innovate -- you may not get as many opportunities to do so in the workforce (in the corporate world, time is money, and innovation is time consuming).

FIRST is awesome!

Re: Be afraid... Be VERY Afraid

It looks like it can either be a duel powered wheel assembly either used for stabilization or for use as a shooter to regulate the distance the projectile will travel?

Again, read the thread. It was officially announced, complete with full CAD of what it actually is.

Thumbs up Re: Be afraid... Be VERY Afraid

That is beautiful! You'll have to let us know how well it works. And tell your programmers I'm praying for them...

Is this wheel device for driving over a Frisbee? One wheel up off the ground to get over the Frisbee and a second wheel to stay on the ground.

This was published before kickoff and was revealed here.

Might a mod change the thread title or close it? This seems to be happening a lot...
