FRC2826 Wave Robotics Reveal #Team28PointAuton

That is an incredibly efficient strategy and design. Kudos! It looks like the RC's you collect are ready to be used to cap a stack of totes rather than dangling and swinging around like with some of the other teams that collect all six game pieces. Can you put noodles into the RC's when you are carrying all 3?

We put the noodle in just before we leave the chute with a stack of 6. Only 1 RC at a time as we grab the RC with the shuttler 4 bar in the hole in the lid.

Pardon me while I go pick up my jaw. Amazing work, Wave.

Problem is if you aren't on the TetherHypeTrain, you probably just got ran over by it.

Had to laugh when I saw this!

North Star will be our first regional ever and I'm glad we'll be seeing some sweet designs.

Looking very good, guys! Best of luck in Wisconsin this week. We're definitely bummed to have an event conflict this year, because we'd love the chance to team Ms. Stac-Man up with Depthcharge... Hopefully, we'll get the chance in St. Louis. Best of luck, guys!

Only if you could see the cord connecting your second (or third robot)....

Thank you for all the compliments everyone. Wave is very excited to make a big comeback.

In full transparency, right now we are about 75% on doing the 28 point auto. The times that we fail we are still able to get the 20 point tote stack but miss on either the second or third RCs.

This robot is super cool, but someone actually being honest about their auton.. that's unheard of

75% of the time, it works every time. 25% of the time, it only works 70% as good.

Fantastic robot. I hope to see it in person.

With an extremely late (early? 5am) night last night plus practice day on Thursday we expect to be well in the 95+% range of successful 28 point autos.

I think you guys win for coolest mechanism, this thing is awesome!

That switch from 6wd to 4wd, was that a weight thing?

With 6 wheels we were 115 Lbs. The switch was consistency of auto. The rock in the 6 wheel with the violent shift of the RC to the side was causing the robot to turn too much and we were missing the final RC. With out the rock the drive PID is able to keep us driving straight to get all the game pieces.

Very Impressive.

Really impressive, probably my favorite robot this season. I've always enjoyed seeing what 2826 puts out.

I'd love to get a closer look at that RC pickup system. Hope to get to see it down the road.
