Team 665
Welcome to the MAYHEM style of adapting to the problems that arise. When a leak occurred in the ceiling, for the second time (it has since been fixed with duct tape), it shorted out our florescent lights above the mill. In order to continue building our robot, we needed light by the mill. We used our old battery depletion module to shed some more light in the area.

Re: Team 665
They are 10" diameter, pneumatic wheelchair wheels, we chose these for more speed. However, the front wheels are 8" (more like 7.5", but we're saying 8).
We don't think we'll have any problems with the bumps, despite what the picture shows, we have about 1" of ground clearance, so I don't expect anything bad happening. -Greg Last edited by Greg Peshek : 18-01-2008 at 19:57. Reason: Added more info |

but yes there are 1/2 inch bumps to anchor the lane dividers down that extend out into the field but if you're 1 inch off the ground then you should be fine Last edited by Jaybee1405 : 19-01-2008 at 14:35. |

Re: Team 665
Do I really want to know what the really long thing (that I can't imaging fitting in the box) is for? Or why it has long black things (pneumatic tubing?) attched to it?
BTW, its very shiny. (both drivetrain and bot) |

Re: Team 665
That would be latex tubing, giving the catapult action more force when under tension.
When it is completely finished, you will be amazed by how much shinier it will become. I really appreciate your appreciation of shininess, it makes our team's mentality seem more common. |

Re: Team 665
I'm not sure if this is your final 'bot but if I remember correctly the gearboxes you have on your drive are from two years ago which I think is illegal.

Re: Team 665
You are correct, on all but maybe the "final 'bot". Those are '05 or '06 kit trannies which are not legal. Put the Toughbox in and that drive will be legal and still have about the same speed.

Re: Team 665
Of course we are OBVIOUSLY going to reuse a design from a previous year.
