Rope Length: FROM FLOOR
For the SHORTEST rope configuration, what would be the distance from the bottom of the rope to the floor?
For the LONGEST rope configuration, what length of rope would (theoretically) be lying on the floor? |

Re: Rope Length: FROM FLOOR
When we did the math, we found that the longest put about 17" to 18" on the floor, and the shortest put the end of the rope about 17" to 18" above the floor. In both cases, we assumed that the rope hung vertically and did not have built-in curl. These may actually be a little long, as we did not account for the angled channel just below the fingers.

Re: Rope Length: FROM FLOOR
Some quick math gets results similar to those posted by Gus above. The bottom edge of the Touchpad is 58 inches off of the floor. From the bottom edge of the Touchpad to the far end of the Davit fingers is about 22 inches (taken from the field CAD). Adding on an additional 2 inches in length for the retaining feature, the shortest possible rope of 63 inches would hang 39 inches below the Touchpad, with its bottom being 19 inches off the floor. Alternatively, the longest possible rope of 96 inches would have about 14 inches laying on the floor.

If you want to verify the math yourself, check out section 3.9 TOUCHPAD:

Start by looking at page 75, then figure out how that gets attached to the airship to determine total height. |

Re: Rope Length: FROM FLOOR
Is it not possible to heavy knot up the strap or rope up high or down low so you would have a huge gap to the floor. Yes I know about the height limitations give me a break. So here is the quest my PHD mind set friends. The robot starts to climb. Bumper zone out the window. Volume size leaves the building with ELVIS. So why can't the robot start to climb without the rope/strap. I can't wait for all my smarter peeps to shoot me full of buck shot. I love it when, I'm put in my place. What do they call those cars out in LA, that hop up and down, go back and forth Low Riders. Thomas (just give me crabcake) McCubbin

Re: Rope Length: FROM FLOOR
I'm not sure there is a coherent thought in the post, so any questions it generates is probably for not.
