Re: Mini FRC Championship Challenge!
ALLRIGHT!!!! Wooohooo!!! Thank you so much for going out of your way to bring the field! MARS will definitely have Ballistic Jr. with us, and probably two other mini bots not designed like the real one. We also are using bumpers, although they are made from sponge or thin walled tubing.
One major question: Will the speed of the thrown balls be limited to 1/3? Two issues arise if it is, in that gravity is not 1/3 (uh, nothing we can do about that ), and what could we use to clock the speed anyway?Again though, thank you for making this possible. |

Re: Mini FRC Championship Challenge!
Being that we were mostly using this as a training and brainstorming tool the rules are a little lax...We never intended full on competition with these outside of our shop.
Some of our robots have non-vex parts such as lexan and cloth, some use regular FRC fisher price motors on victor speed controls running off of the primary or even a second vex controller. This is just to have a little fun competition, try to keep it close but as far rules but you don't have to kill yourselves trying to be 100% accurate. Only Vex controllers, and only vex batteries, mostly vex parts and be creative!! We at intelitek are VERY excited to be bringing the field and we are looking forward to a great time at Nationals. |
