Oh yeah, We've also been practicing with the other Hilo team,Team 1378. They're moving along and have a cool, flashy bot design.

Re: Team 359 Hawaiian Kids: Almost complete!

Great looking robot? I do have one question. In the first picture where you are picking up the trackball off the floor, it sure looks like you are exceeding 80". How far out does your arm reach?

Re: Team 359 Hawaiian Kids: Almost complete!

the bot does not exceed the 80" rule.
Our arm cannot extend past the 80" at any time. The angle of that pic makes it look pretty long though.

I see that you guys decided to go 6-wheel this year. How's the overall weight of the bot?

Re: Team 359 Hawaiian Kids: Almost complete!

At first, we were designing it to pick up from both sides. However, a certain "manipulator" not shown yet, will be on the back making it a lot easier to do several ? We will post more pics as the days go by and once installed.
Our bot also weighed in at 118 with everything on (minus battery and bumpers).

so you are no longer able to pick from "front" and "back"

We will no longer be able to pick up from the back.....but with great reason.

Re: Team 359 Hawaiian Kids: Almost complete!

more pics posted on the link at the beginning of this post, however, after adding our last function, it took us 4 pounds overweight! We are shaving gears in our transmission, losing 1 of our 4 air tanks, and trading 2 CIM motors in our drive for 2 FP ones instead.
We "shhhhooooouuulllllddddd" be underweight, I hope.

Re: Team 359 Hawaiian Kids: Almost complete!

Oooh there's better ways to save weight than switching out 2 CIMS for FP's. Not only will you lose power, but the FP will get really really hot. If you do go through with it, I suggest mounting a muffin fan on back of the FP to cool it down through the holes.

It's only 4 pounds. Trust me, there's better ways to lose it.

Correct me if I'm wrong but aren't the Fp motors the highest wattage motors we get? At least historically its been that way, however I do agree, cims are served better as drivetrain motors as they can take quite a bit of abuse and the fps have a tendency to produce the sweet aroma of magic smoke.

This is a great looking bot, I imagine you have to bring the arm back before raising it in order to stay within the 80"'s which is fine, a lot of teams are doing that including us.

This looks like a quality robot from a quality team hope we get to see some vids soon.
