Works fine for me on a desktop.

This robot really does look a crustacean. Nice work!

Re: 1876 BeachBotics - The Mantis Shrimp

In the Palmetto Regional, we were undefeated (9 W, 0 L) in qualifying matches and seeded 2nd, behind 3824. The time for alliance picks was 30 minutes early, so we (and other teams!) were unprepared. However, we ended up with a good alliance, team 1319, Flash, and team 2059, The Hitchhikers. Sadly, mechanical errors and a battery issue resulted in 2 losses and disqualification in the final rounds.

Congrats to 3824, 1261, and 4935 for winning!

Luckily, we look forward to competing in the Orlando regional in a few weeks!

This thing was the real deal at Palmetto, and I look forward to sharing a field with it in Orlando!

Re: 1876 BeachBotics - The Mantis Shrimp

The machine was really great for those truss shots and close goal shots. I was kind of surprised at how effective your intake and shooter were. One thing I was concerned about though was your drivetrain seemed to be bowing out (or atleast it was when I walked by your pit). I think added some sort of cross brace piece between the gearboxes, or having a frame member run under the gearboxes to keep them in plane will fix the issue.

Thanks! From what I have seen, Orlando will be very different than Palmetto.

Thanks. We are brainstorming ways to increase the accuracy of the shooter. Our fast-paced intake and shooting really set us apart. During our last practice match on Thursday, our 3D printed drivetrain CIM mounts broke, so the gearbox mounts bowed a bit. We spent the whole night printing a new, stronger set. Also this was our first time using a mecanum drivetrain so it wasn't perfect.

Re: 1876 BeachBotics - The Mantis Shrimp

1876 your team put together a great machine this year, and thanks for choosing us as a part of your alliance. Getting together on the practice field with you and 2059 practicing our assists showed the alliances true potential. Too bad we couldn't make it happen on the field.

Wish you the best of luck in Orlando, we are headed to Georgia next.
