Re: pic: This is our robot as of last night. Alot more should get done this week now
That's like a huge diameter tube to use on the arm. Is that the final stage or is there going to be more after that?
It seems like if there was more, the window motor probably can't handle the load very quickly. |

Re: pic: This is our robot as of last night. Alot more should get done this week now
I spy a Colson wheel in the background, so I'm assuming it's a 4wd w/ colsons.
Looks very nice and clean. I too am wondering about that massive bazooka tube for an arm. As it sits right now, it can't reach the floor, so I'm guessing that it either telescopes or has a wrist that's yet to be added. I guess your electrical guys are pretty quick. They need their cables fed at 400rpm! ![]() BEN |

The Tube is 3" diameter .125" wall. A bit overkill but after the cheesing it only weights 3lbs. There will be a grabber on the end of the tube.
We tested out the window motors and they will me powerful enough to run the arm. We will have one more added on the other side, and it will be geared down a little bit. And because there is no back dive, it helps with moving the arm. --Dan |

He said 6WD. I'm hoping there's another border piece on the exposed side to support the other side of the tranny shaft. Otherwise.... ick. Seeing a shaft loaded like that seriously distresses me.

unless they've changed the outside (which is entirely possible) this post of their CAD earlier seems to show that it is indeed supported on both sides

Re: pic: This is our robot as of last night. Alot more should get done this week now
As of right now, it fits in the 120lbs / 4ft class. It's supposed to be able to reach the top goal, but we won't know until we build the grabber onto its end.
There will be a bracket mounted on the outside of the wheels, and there will be a lowered middle wheel. The general design is the same, but the grabber looks different. Functionaly it's supposed to be the same though. -Guy |

I'm not sure I understand how that will fit in the 72" limit. If your arm is 50" long and the bot is 38" then you will be 88" in total (of course I'm just guessing).

Re: pic: This is our robot as of last night. Alot more should get done this week now
The rule states that the robot must fit inside the 72"x72" box. It also states the orientation doesn't matter. Now, if you put the robot on the diagonal of that box, with the two corners touching the sides of the box, and the arm extended all the way out, it is about 45" long from where it breaks the plane of the robot. That fits inside the box. For more info, check the thread about R12 in the Rules and Strategy forum.
