Re: pic: Sparky 384's Mecanums!
THis thing is absolutely beautiful. How much does it weigh and how much weight did all of the cheeseholing take off. Also I'm assuming that it is powdercoated. AMAZING

Looks like Sparky 8 is going to be another very effective, and good looking robot. I look forward to seeing it at VCU, but playing against it... well, thats a whole other story....

Sweet!
I don't see any feedback on the wheels. Are you planning to have talented drivers controlling it "open loop" without computer assistance? |

I'm guessing the flag will be removed before competition?

we lost 7lbs from all the cheesholing, and it's still very structurally sound. And, yes, has been powdercoated, and the blue is a lot more brilliant in person. You're gonna love it even more at VCU under the bright lights.Quote:

Very pretty frame; looks very solid.
Can you climb a ramp? What's your clearance? |

Re: pic: Sparky 384's Mecanums!
Clearance is between 1-3/4" and 2", so it should be able to climb just about any ramp.

Awsome looking machine, which is traditional from your team. However, why blue paint? The Sparkies of the past have always been orange haven't they? Anyway, we look forward to seeing you at VCU. Good luck to everyone this year!
