Go to Post Personally, I'm really not jealous of any good team in FIRST. I'm happy for them, and take a page out of their books to see how we can better impact our students in the future. - waialua359 [more]

Re: Westside Boiler Invasion Team 461's Finished Robot

The ramps are about 12 pounds a piece with legs , lexan, and things. A servo in the back pulls a pin, and surgical tubing does the rest. There is tubing in the joint of the ramps to give it the initial spring, and then the long piece takes over. The legs have surgical tubing on them as well to pop them out. We have a quite simple piece in the back to hold the ramps until they get out enough to fall and not hit the carpet. Like I said, its all mechanical except the servo. We figured it would be better and easier for other teams to come on our ramps on their time, not when we want them to. Just post the link if you get to it Allison, thanks.
