Re: HELLPP! El Toro Intake.
Our team (573) has been using the two spinning stick pickup successfully this year. The basics of our design are: (2) RS775 motors; (2) 5:1 VersaPlanetary gearboxes; (2) ~22 in long Sch 80 1/2" pipes with a tight wrap of the 1/16" by 1" latex rubber from McMaster; laying on top of the bumper (7.5 inches above the floor); with a 30 degree angle when extended; with a powered lift using the AM 42T pulleys, a 15mm Gates belt, and a PG188 gearmotor, and (3) wraps of surgical tubing to pull the stick together. We found the tension of the last item to be important when we helped team 3548 at the Southfield competition.
