Team 884 30 pt Climber Testing

Holy airtanks!! It might be a little late now but you can get a 1 gallon metal tank that should hold all of your air that weighs less than all of those tanks combined, and looks cooler

Sweet climber though, you guys do that quick!! If you really want to save air you could invest in spring extension cylinders that only use air on the way in and a spring going out, we thought about it until our 30 pt climber got scrapped.

Thanks for the comments. We are looking into getting a new tank and cylinders now but with our limited rescources and this late in the game might not happen before end day!!

14 of the 41 cubic inch tanks they're using equals 574 cubic inches.

1 gallon is 231 cubic inches.

Might want to do a few calculations on required air consumption before committing to the 1 gallon tank.

We are looking at some 2.5 gallon tanks

Is your robot too wide to fit inside the top of the pyramid?

Pardon me, I checked out tank today and it is 3 Gallons, I had realized my error. I believe that this is the one that we ordered specifically.

I'm sorry for the misinformation.

Using an air ride tank is probably the coolest thing Ive seen on an FRC bot.
