Re: pic: FRC 1714 More Robotics
Love it! The clear plates look outstanding!
What's the large piston on the right side for? |

That is for winding the kicker back. It then extends forward again and a ratchet releases the kicker. |

Re: pic: FRC 1714 More Robotics
Very cool looking robot. I'm wondering why you chose to pocket material out of the polycarb instead of just ripping it away? Structural integrity? Very aesthetically pleasing bot....any close up shots of the wheels?

Re: pic: FRC 1714 More Robotics
Thanks for all the compliments. We pocketed the sides for weight reduction and to keep the structural integrity. The kicker also mounts to the side pieces, so we couldn't have cut them away. We will be able to have a close up of the wheel this afternoon. As far as the speedy inspection goes, we usually skip the check to see if anything is being grounded to the frame.

People in acrylic houses probably shouldn't throw stones, but I think polycarbonate homeowners are just fine

Re: pic: FRC 1714 More Robotics
The robot looks awesome with the Acrylic! (or is it Polycarb?)

Re: pic: FRC 1714 More Robotics
Definitely polycarb. Acrylic wouldn't last through autonomous mode in FRC.

Re: pic: FRC 1714 More Robotics
Reminder to posters- this is not acrylic. This is polycarbonate. Acrylic shatters and is never a good choice for FRC robots.
