Re: Newton Discussion - Championship 2007

Team 399
Picture:Elevator extended, robot on our ramp, starting position

Robot Class: 4' 120lbs
Drivetrain: 4wd (6 wheels total, back four powered)
Speed: (Unmeasured...)
Ground Clearance: ~2"? Around, we can climb up to 30 degree ramp.
Arm: 3 stage elevator powered by the two Keyang motors, travels relatively fast. Also our grabber is run independently by chain on a system that moves up and down with the elevator.
Gripper: Suction cup, with "wings" that hold the tube stable while driving. Works really well, suprisingly.
Pick Up Method: Floor
Ramp: 2 robots.
Results: Philadelphia Regional Finalists, 3rd seeded at Los Angeles (We could have done better in Philly, but due to banebots transmissions we could not drive for a couple matches. We went through three sets, hopefully the hardened, improved pin plates in atlanta don't fail.)
Strengths: Scoring. We can do it consistently, and under defense. Our driver has years experience and works extremely well under pressure. Our ramps are pretty good, but teams with the maximum (28") wide robot with bumpers on have a smaller window to get up on (they have to line up kind of to the right, rather than being able to gun it from anywhere).


Watch a couple of our matches at :
