Re: 830 teaser #1

So whats going on here is that we have Windows on Turning, CIM's on our 2 front wheels and FP's on 2 back wheels. the reasoning is that we need 1 CIM for shooting and 1 for intake.

Re: 830 teaser #1

So, if I'm not mistaken, you have 4 steering motors and 4 driving motors? 4WD independent swerve is always impressive. Have you tested it out on the slippery floor material yet?

Great job.

we've tried that. It doesn't seem to make a huge difference for us.

Re: 830 teaser #1

Why use a crab drive this year? I mean, it is well built and looks really cool. I just wonder how it will do with a trailer on it.

Re: 830 teaser #1

swerve has several advantages...

a lot dealing with control ability
a lot dealing with pinning

another being that if we find it isn't great we can just lock the wheels and go to tank.

over the past several days we had been at team 503's practice field practicing with a trailer. there is definitely a slight advantage to swerve.

we came up 20 pounds under, so we will probably keep it.
