Re: "Team 1504 tests"

Great job 1504! Here's another minibot were working on, got it climbing up the pole with only one motor. Looking great so far!

Re: "Team 1504 tests"

The mecanum looks pretty nice, although the chassis seems small. What are the specs?

Have you tried adding nonslip padding to the wheels for the minibot? Other than that, it looks as light weight as you can get.

Re: "Team 1504 tests"

no clue about the chasis, R3P0 will probably stop by and answer that. The mini bot is no where needing extra grip, the wheels aren't slipping when on the pole. We have ideas for making it even lighter too

Re: "Team 1504 tests"

The goal on the minibot that I wanted to see completed was under 3 seconds currently with only one motor we are slightly over that goal. I am not a huge fan of mechanum drive but the test chassis has been really good at changing my mind.
