Adding a little traction control can help things a little also. |

Re: FRC488 Driving Over the Bump
We got ours going over the bump after some weight redistribution.

Re: FRC488 Driving Over the Bump
Has anyone considered putting rubber grommets around their axles where they mount to the frame to reduce impact forces slightly? They'd have to be pretty stiff to keep the chains from coming off, but 1/8" of "give" on a high impact would be a good step towards shock reduction.
Jason Edit: "Brute force the bump?".... YEAH!! I want to see robots get air off those things! There's going to be more than one team who drives over them at high speed just for fun! I'm going to watch some old Dukes of Hazzard reruns for inspiration! Last edited by dtengineering : 28-01-2010 at 02:15. |

Might be easier than trying to convince the driver to slow down for the speed bump |

Re: FRC488 Driving Over the Bump
Thanks a lot for posting these videos. It's allowed me to evaluate and consider the forces involved in climbing the bump on the rest of the robot before our chassis got built. This is the year of the 8 wheel drive!

Re: FRC488 Driving Over the Bump
Will going over a ball like that be a penalty? That will be extremely annoying, since they are pretty much impossible to see.

Re: FRC488 Driving Over the Bump
Nice post Madison.
We are not as brave to "Dukes of Hazzard" our robot, yet! |
