Re: VEX Drive Trains 2007
You can also de-score the platforms. However I don't think de-scoring will be a big thing at the regional events. I haven't seen any strategies really using the low goals or the platform for scoring. If the robots can't score on the posts they go to get the goals.

Re: VEX Drive Trains 2007
More Robotics participates in a local VEX tournament in the fall to prepare for FRC. The game was to pick marbles out of a pit in the middle, and fill up teeter totters. Our team decided to use an Omni drive so we could be very manuverable. The Omni drive worked very well for what we needed.

Re: VEX Drive Trains 2007
My team is using a 4 wheel design (but that will be changing very soon
) with chain. It has a two speed transmission, similar to the one we used in last years FVC competition with a small change.This is the test bot we made over the summer Thats a little dated, but the transmission is no different. Best of luck to all FTC teams! Regards, Team Unlimited (FTC #1) and its members |

Re: VEX Drive Trains 2007
We can schlerp rings off the movable goal platforms and drop them outside the field, (as well as push them out of the side goals), but it's unlikely that we would do so. In a tight match, we can score as quickly as de-score, and you get more rank points by playing offensive than defensive. In an unbalanced match, it might even be worthwhile to score some points for the other team (or at least let them have the movable goals).

Re: VEX Drive Trains 2007
We're using 6WD with 4 1:1 all purpose wheels, and 2 front large omniwheels. I'll put up pics as soon as I can.
