The fans that we will be using (in 1729) are two 16" 8 pitch props that will give us 4.8 LBs of thrust each ... thats a total of 9.6LBs of additional thrust. I believe S.P.A.M.s propeller gives them a bitmore than 10 LBs of additional thrust. If you consider that your robot will typically have between 9 and 15 LBs of thrust from the wheels (depending on whos' numbers you believe) this is a significant increase and can be a great advantage if the drivers can utilize that extra thrust. Let me know what you think of the propellers after the regionals. Personally, I believe that there will be a propeller assisted robot on Einstien this year. |

Re: pic: Spam 180 robot
I talked to George Wallace last night about your robot. It seems to be a killer design and you will be literally a "force" at your regionals.
Congratulations look forward to playing with you but not against you. Oink Oink Spam!! |

Re: pic: Spam 180 robot
I predict some design awards for this one. Great job, & like everyone else I can't wait to see this in action at the Florida Regional.
Better hang on to your capes! ![]() |
