Re: 25's Completed Field Setup

Two questions to the fine folks on 25...is this to scale? And what did you use to suspend the spider legs? Looks like string, but I'm not sure.

The field is not to exact scale. We first built the rack, and then estimated and sized the rest of the field accordingly. String was used to suspend the spider legs, with some rainbow string serving as the center "chain". The rack is also built so that it can move within the scaled radius of 3 feet.

Note the driver and human player-they are to scale!

Haha, we did the same except with legos. We even had some people having timed practice games to develop strategy and such.

Re: 25's Completed Field Setup

I think this is most practical with VEX. I think that VEX is great for the purpose of scaleing and prototyping before time, effort, and money is gone into making a robot.

You guys need to stop taking this so seriously. We were trying to figure out how the rack actually moved and got a bit carried away. It was just something fun that we did while strategizing and such; it was meant as a joke.

That's hilarious. At first I thought you had actually built the real field and I'm pretty sure my jaw dropped in shock.

We're supposedly playing around with different manipulator designs at our meeting tonight using donuts and straws.
