Re: pic: Haven't got a clue for 'how to' climb for 30 points? Here's one

Good eye Brandon, Right now the drive train is not hooked up and is only dead weight to make CG manipulation work. If you're keeping up with the discussion the question is do we even need to make it work. The robot rules say you have to have a 'mobility' system. They don't say it has to be functional. As it stands now our match strategy is to position the robot at the start of the match inside the pyramid with the arm touching the first rung. Then in autonomous the robot will climb to the first rung and hang. When teleop begins it will climb to the second rung, transition to the outside and finish the match hanging in level 3. The sticky wicket right now continues to be climbing speed. During the 2 minutes of teleop it's dicey completing the L3 climb, hence starting in autonomous. We're looking at other climbing motor/gearbox combos to make the climb faster. The current climb mechanism is a 36 inch 1/2 inch 0.25 lead screw run by an AM-0915 gearmotor. That spins the lead screw at close to 200 rpm climbing at 50 inches per minute. We're looking at using a BAG motor/Vex Pro gearbox setup.
