Team THRUST (1501) 2007 Robot

Team THRUST lifting one robot:
http://youtube.com/watch?v=mR-yBHppjMw

Lifting two robots:
http://youtube.com/watch?v=6KOEJXK4waw

Both robots are fully functional and at full weight.
We use two 12" stoke cylinders and two 100 pound gas struts.
We lift to 13.5" in 4 seconds.
We have two outriggers that lock down.

Enjoy

Aren't the 12" stroke cylinders illegal?

Sidewinder definetly wasn't meant for our new robot. We had to have a couple people lift it up and put it on the ramp. Scorpion did a lot better of getting on. Now if the ball shooter only worked.

Re: Team THRUST (1501) 2007 Robot

Our ramps are 2.5" high and have angled entry surfaces of 16 and 19 degrees, which should make our ramps an easy climb for the vast majority of the robots in this years competition.

That's our 2.5 robot lift Any other team, besides Team 45, could not have done that. They have brakes on the wheels that kept them on our wings.
