Go to Post Innovating for the sake of innovating, reinventing the wheel is probably the second biggest pitfall you can fall into when designing an FRC robot, if the wheel is already a very optimized, good solution. - Chris is me [more]

Re: Team 330 - 2016 Robot

Wow! Very interesting. Looks like it will fit under the low barrier and has a pivoting pickup/shooter!

Would like more info and a video showing boulder pickup and shooting, plus a climb.
I saw struts to open it up the mechanism, but didn't notice how the climber is powered. Can you elaborate?

Looks sweet!

Are your arm motors on the arm?! I think that's the first time I've seen that... but I can see why you had to package it that way!

There's a strap, not pictured, down to the yellow winch, powered by a PTO from the drivetrain.
