I like the pneumatically controlled pivot will on front. What actuator size are you using? We used 2 3/4" bore, 2" strokes for back pivot wheels. They work great except we have already managed to partially be one of the cyclinders rods.
The bots impressive, does the arm go down to slide under the bar? |

You stole our name!!!! We have used Spike since 1997 for our robot! Last year we had Spike V this year is Spike VI, please make sure you don't copy names of other teams!!

Pistons: The pistons are 2" bore, 2" stroke...I don't think the rod will bend, but we do have a backup. We ran in to the mesh full speed with the caster deployed, no damage!
The arm DOES fold down to go under the bar. As long as our light is legal (fingers crossed) we should be limboing. Regarding the name...We are sorry! It's pretty hard to check for duplicates, though (a search for spike turns up a few unrelated things in CD ). Fortunately we are not attending the same regionals. Funny, though, we thought about going to New Jersey. Don't worry, we change the robot name every year.Eric. Last edited by Eric Reed : 24-02-2003 at 14:40. |

How many teams are there named "Knights"
I can think of 5 off the top of my head... That's probably why we're not the Golden Knights (like Clarkson is) Teams have been copying names for a loooong time. |
