pic: 2403 Side View No Bumpers
Greetings from team 2403 "Team Plasma" Here is our 'bot! Drive: 2 CIMs on each side, 6 wheel drive with 4x 8" dualie omni wheels and 2x plaction wheels, rocking suspension on the back. Chassis: the standard 2010 c-base with gearboxed mounted on top, battery underneath, and electronics at the back, hinged lexan covering the electronics and hinged diamond plate covering the kicker and battery access. Kicker: spinning steel turbine powered by a CIM and a belt. Pops the ball over one bump Ball incursion: sloped top flush with the top of the bumpers at the front and back, front and rear have a steel bar. Strategy: push around all the robots with holomonic wheels and 2 motor drive ; ) Best Feature: driving over the bump! It drives very smoothly over it no matter how fast we go! P.s. we need some help naming it! I was thinking "one steel wonder" because it seems the most dangerous component of all of our robots havs always been made of angle or tube steel! p.p.s.

Coolio. I like the diamondplate. Hardcore. I expect you can traverse the bump in your sleep.

Re: pic: 2403 Side View No Bumpers
Exactly! At the beginning of the build season, we were like "well, lets make a plastic electronics board instead of a wooden one this time" and then we found that diamond plate left over from last year...at least aluminum is non-conductive ; )

 Shouldn't matter as long as you have your cRIO and camera (if you're using it) mounted with non-conductive bolts+spacers. |

Oh yeah...I apologize for the misinformation...I posted this at like 1 am last night
 and I also see all the misspellings now!Anyways, yeah, each electronics component is separated from the aluminum by foam rubber. Thanks for pointing it out! |
