If the school blocks you look from another location.

That is one really impressive ramp.

Ryan Dognaux · #3 14-02-2007, 12:46

The ramps are impressive, is it safe to say you guys are only scoring on the lower rack? Very cool.

MikeDubreuil · #4 14-02-2007, 12:59

Looks great guys. One question, was there a specific reason the ramps drop one side at a time? IMHO it would be cooler to see both sides do everything at the same time.

Very impressive ramp, nice job.

No, we do score on the lower and middle spiders.

No both ramps can drop at the same time, thats just how we did it in the video, but yes it is really cool when they both fold out at the same time.

Very nice! What is your ramp material made of?

Like most of the robot it is made of Alum tubing inc, the surface that is alum perf. Very thin, very light and very strong ( I hope).

We tested by using a 200+ pound person walking up and down the ramps ( a robot will never put that amount of force per sq inch).

how much does your entire ramp system weigh?
