Re: Low-Rider Robots
Our robot's drivetrain and wheels were inspired by team 121's low-riding colson wheels. We also have 4" wheels, which puts our chassis at about .25 inches of clearance. The problem is that the chassis bolt heads stick down about another .125 inches, this means that we cannot clear the HDPE loading zones.
Team 121: do you guys have .25 counting those bolt heads? currently we are running a two wheel drive. On the front we have 4" omniwheels and on the back we have the 8" skyway wheels that we lifted up to match the clearance of the omnis. Does anyone have any thoughts on how this will perform? We're going to do our first carpet test of this drivetrain tomorrow. I'm planning on putting some pictures up soon. |
