Vid: Team MARS, it's all coming together!
Despite the severe winter storm we managed to meet on our regular days (even if we were short-handed). Check out Marvin III.

Looks very cool, especially when on the bump! Can't wait to see it in North Carolina. Beautiful!

Re: Vid: Team MARS, it's all coming together!
Great progress so far! Can't wait to see what you use for a lifting mechanisum

Re: Vid: Team MARS, it's all coming together!
I'm very interested in the purpose of leveling and strafing on the bump. I have seen a few videos now of mecanum robots doing this and the only purpose I can see is for the finale where you may be able to elevate easier and on a side of the tower that will likely be less frequently used.
Definitely looking like a nice robot so far! |

Vikesrock,
We do intend to begin lifting ourselves from the bump. This is where our strafing and auto-leveling will come in handy. We are also toying with the idea of "defensive" playing from atop the bump... |

Re: Vid: Team MARS, it's all coming together!
It will also be a lot easier and quicker to just go to the other bump while the defensive robot is on-top of a bump going side to side.

Not quite hitting on our plan (which while it is not critical to our over-all strategy would be a nice addition)...

Re: Vid: Team MARS, it's all coming together!
Blocking balls from on top of the bump may work out quite well. You may have to be careful though that someone doesn't decide to come up and knock you off.

Looking good
Like the ability to strafe on the bump and your kicking system is superb. Can't wait for the lifting attachment! |

Re: Vid: Team MARS, it's all coming together!
all of this is where the auto-leveling comes in handy. the idea is that robots will not be able to knock the robot off the bump.

Re: Vid: Team MARS, it's all coming together!
Our robot, too has a bump strafing system, but no leveling one. I wonder how our two systems work differently! (lol analogous structures)

Re: Vid: Team MARS, it's all coming together!
If you don't have a self-righting mechanism I would test this theory before you try it in a match.
