Wrecking Ball Robots
Since open field "tackling"/"crashes" are permitted this year, has any team designed their robot for that intent? Ever since day five, (not one, because I had a "wall" idea) my idea was just that: a giant wrecking ball. Make it only about 10 inches high and make it out of steel instead of aluminum and use 2 CIMs per side to power the bot. My idea was to make it just heavy enough to pass the weight limit to maximize the force of the impact. Now you see where I am going with this. The top of the chassis would be a steel plate. Pretty much a tank without any weaponry. Very simple and rugged. Now any team doing any similar ideas?
Of course our team is not doing this: we are the generic arm robot that has a 6 second minibot... *sigh*
