I can't believe how far behind we are....

Yea, we're at the same place

[gondorf]

week 3: 60lbs.

[cire]

our drivetrain weighs 52 Lbs, is that a lot for a drivetrain? (fully functional drivetrain)

Overall I think we are at about 75, without electronics or shooter.. I think we will manage though.

I dont know officially how much weighs, but I know that with the full drive train, wheels and electronics, I can still pick it up. Therefore it must not be too heavy :-p

That's how I used to do it too. Then I started hitting the gym - picked up the robot in build the next season and said "oh, we're fine."

It was 17 lbs over Too bad there's no jacked up smiley...

I think we are sitting at 25 lbs right now.

we've got...um...like 5 lbs, but that's because we just have one part of the frame bolted together. we calculated the motors, frame, polycarb, sprockets, compressor, transmissions and pistons to weight about 50 lbs. no calcs on the chain or the electronics yet.

Our drivetrain with wheels, frame, and gearboxes, and maybe with electronics mounted on a temporary 1/2" piece of plywood the whole width and length of the bot and battery weighed in at 48 lbs.

Our upper frame part so far has only brought that number up 20 lbs. We are around 70 now, but that will fluctuate a lot from now until the end of the week.

We are doing good, but the upper part is far from complete. It'll happen though.
