FRC 2017 Competition Field

You can create a new front view based on the current view but I think you are probably looking for something more dynamic. This solution would be a single, mostly static view.

Let me think about it some more for a better solution.

Hello,
My team and I tried to download the Inventor and the Fusion 360 but somehow cannot open it in neither of the programs, is there something else we need to do in order to open those files (apart of downloading the programs) or an explanation to why we cannot open them?


Thanks

What version of Inventor/ Fusion are you using? Autodesk files are not backwards compatible (you can't open an Inventor 2017 file in Inventor 2016). If that's the issue, you could try the STEP file as others have suggested.

Thank you for making the Field CAD available. The ability to visualize this game from a drive team perspective has been quite shocking. I have not seen much discussion of the visibility challenges that the AIRSHIPs are introducing to this game. I think that it will be very difficult to cycle GEARs or even FUEL depending upon your PLAYER STATION because FIELD visibility appears to vary wildly. Am I missing something?

For Inventor, you might want to set your project file to the included one first, then open the assembly. Also, make sure you are running Inventor 2017. Otherwise, as mentioned, use the STEP files.

What scale did you use to make this? Is that explained in the video?

[inventor_phild]

The parts are actual size, so 1:1.

The dimension for the baseline had been corrected in team update 1. It is NOT 9 ft 4 inches (previous manual statement). It is 7 ft 9 and 1/4 inches from the alliance wall (team update 1 statement).

Props to Autodesk for making their CAD more accurate than the game manual.

Is the fuel modeled correctly in the KoP download? Ours is 4" diameter.

We corrected it by making the ball 2.5" diameter and the hole pattern spacing to 2.5" as well.

The field I downloaded has the baseline at 9ft from the alliance wall, is there an updated version out there somewhere?

Check out the field on the Autodesk website.

Let me know if this works.

Phil,

I think that link is incorrect

We have some video of the field from driver stations that we captured through VR. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r3IwrBywC7g
