Halfway through build: How much does your robot weigh?

[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.

With actual weighs on most of the heavier items, our projected weight right now is 94 pounds. That includes 4 CIM motors, 2 Big CIMs, and the compressor.

This year we'll probably be underweight by 10 pounds or more so we'll have to come up with other devices to add to it

[demps45]

So far we are ahead of schedule compared to previous years. Our chassis weighs in at about 52 pounds, complete with gearboxes, motors, sprockets, chains - less electronics. I am sure we will be putting in a lot of speed holes during week six.

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.

At the moment our robot weighs about 90 lbs and we dont have much to add, just a few more things for reinforcement and such, we should have some weight space.

[Leo 1529]

ours weighs about 60 pounds right now without the battery... because all we have on it are mock up parts

[gondorf]

week 3: 60lbs.
