Re: pic: Ramp Video

The center Omni's are ALWAYS touching the ground, they never leave the floor. They aren't powered by anything other than the friction on the carpet when the Mec wheels are moving. The bumpers are in a permanet position. If you use the bump to manuvere around the field then no matter what your bumpers are going to change height. Meaning when you are going up your back bumper will be closer to the ground then if you were on level ground and just the opposite when going down the other side. The bumpers are solid and in the correct height while on LEVEL ground!

We have read the rules many many times and the question has been given to Q & A. We have asked many many teams in our area about it and if this is doable. Most agree with us that it is perfectly fine while others weren't sure. We are 99.9% sure that we are correct and would be shocked to see anything differently.

Yep Joe, Update #3 today also green-lighted it. I really look forward to seeing this design in action! Be sure to post some videos of it during competition.

Re: pic: Ramp Video

Is that the 45degree angle of the ramp? it looked to shalow, and you should build a real bump if possible because it is much harder to test with out the real thing if you know what i mean.

That picture is from one year ago. You can view a video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jQMcw4QNCLI

The video ramp is a 45 degree ramp but we had to cut the corners for the low ground clearence of the 6 inch wheels. We will be using 8 inch
