The belt that is on there is tight as a drum. It was tensioned into place by moving one of the parts with a clamp and does not appear to flex at all when pushed on. It is not one of the 5mm kit belts, it has a much shallower profile. We are looking at belts with a deeper profile, not wider belts.

We have a nearly identical 2nd conveyor running perfectly using some fo the 5mm kit belts.

We're keeping our control system, part of the turret, and we are bringing in our redesigned rollers.

If it's a wrong/shallow profile belt, fair enough. If you're looking to buy more 5mm pitch belts or timing belt sprockets, SDP/SI has a wide selection, including a ton of really light polycarbonate timing belt pulleys with aluminum hubs.

cRio board which we made modular for easy removal.
Camera system for further testing on a second robot,
Drivers station.
Some Lexan panels so they can be lettered and logos applied.
Spare wheels.
Everything else is COTS.

We're holding on to our control board and driver station. We had some issues at this weekends scrimmage, all programming, mostly problems with watchdog. Everything else is pretty simple and doesn't need fixing

we are actually bringing -6 pounds of stuff and putting it all on the bot when we get to ct regional.
