If by 'flop bot' you mean a robot that only has a ramp...than that is not us!

We have our arm ready to be mounted in between the two sides of the ramps (hence the open middle). It is a fairly light weight two stage arm, that if you add the ramp, makes a total of a 3 stage arm.

Pictures will come this week!

By "flop bot" he means a bot that starts on it's side, then falls down. This is typically used in order for teams to have a longer dimesnion (the 48"/60"/72" dimension, as opposed to either the 28" or 38") driving on the floor.

Oh..ok..


This is still not a "Flop Bot"

The ramp is around 45" long (rounded) and sits around 15 degrees.

Our robot will be 48" tall in total (starting position)

The hinges are integrated into the frame construction and the ramp (in the axle of the sprockets.

By the way, we have two huge aluminum sprockets! One to power the ramp/truss and one to power the elbow (arm).
