 Every match they would leave blue and red skid marks all over the carpet. It was like someone roadkilled a Smurf. - Koko Ed [more] |

Re: Robot Cart Questions from a rookie team
I once had plans to make a very fancy robot cart but then one of our engineers said "it would be better to bolt on a few good handles onto the frame than to make a cart for it" While I don't necessarily agree with that completely, it is definitely something to think about. If you can have something like a high gear in a shifting transmission or a drivetrain disconnect or a couple fixed caster wheels on the robot then it is very easy to push or pull.
I think carts tend to get in the way and a lot of room when the robot isn't on them. |
