Re: Vertical Pipe Hanging

Maybe I'm in the wrong thread here, but does anyone have a video to show of a robot "driving" up a pole. I think I know what your talking about, but need to see it in action.

BTW: In a match at SVR, 254 was scoring a ball with 10 seconds left, then drove to the tower, lined up and hung with 4 seconds still left in the match. This was on Friday at their first comp. I bet they will get this manuever (depending on defense of course) down to just a few seconds. VERY FAST!!

Look at this video starting at 2:28 to see 78 drive up the side pole. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yc4mw8YvBLw

Correction: Team 75 hangs from the horizontal top bar, as witnessed here: http://www.chiefdelphi.com/media/photos/35278

Add 612 to the list.

I don't know. All I know is that some time after their videos came out, someone from one of those teams came out and said that they were removing their hangers to use the weight to make improvements in the drivetrain.

Re: Vertical Pipe Hanging

As of the cass tech district we played them in, they could not go under the tunnel. It is very unlikely that they can now due to the height of the robot at cass tech. but if they do, kudos to them.
