Team 2468 Fully Functional Steering Robot
We got our Ackermann steering complete last night and the programming is working very well. We need to work on the reverse though.
Any thoughts or advice are appreciated. Check it out at the following link. http://chaprobotics.blogspot.com/ More work to be done though. I cannot believe how fast the six weeks have gone. We have learned so much during our Rookie season so far. |

Cool looks like you may need a tighter turning radius what is it now like 10-15ft?

Re: Team 2468 Fully Functional Steering Robot
Nice work! It's good to see a rookie team attempting a somewhat complex drive system. My advice, and others will back me up here, is to test it out on carpet. It will probably make a large performance difference.

We will get it on carpet tomorrow to see what the difference is in performance.

Very nice. This is the first time I've seen anything other than a tank drive. Granted, our regional is kinda small, but that doesn't make this robot any less awesome.

Re: Team 2468 Fully Functional Steering Robot

a little warning though....make sure you can mount your flagpole 51 inches up |

Re: Team 2468 Fully Functional Steering Robot
Looking good! In the past, Ackermann steering has not been the best choice in drivetrain, but for this particular game, I think it may be one of the best ways to control your robot and get around the track quicker than everyone else.

Re: Team 2468 Fully Functional Steering Robot
Nice job 2468! I don't think that is really Ackerman because the front axle connectors don't point to the middle of the rear axle, but none the less it looks great.

We tested yesterday on carpet and got a turning radius just inside 6 feet as well. We are mounting our flag in the back left corner when you look at the bot from the front. We will have a mechanism on the opposite back corner that is capable of extending to knock the ball off the hurdle. |
