A ranking of FRC Teams based on their Average Season OPRs over the past 7 years (each year equally weighted). Includes Average Season Z-score and Average Rank. Now includes Z-score Prediction based on a time-derated average.
This is our scouting sheet for Ultimate Ascent similar to one we used from SPAM last year that went really smoothly. We had four scouters sit and fill out a sheet while one put them into the excel spreadsheet.
An example of improper gear ratio selection, and a possible solution to model robot battery voltage to improve simulation accuracy. Also includes my thoughts on drivetrain gear ratio selection.
Rebound Rumble ballistic trajectory with air friction drag and Magnus Effect (backspin/topspin lift/dive). For students interested in the physics, math, and computer simulation aspects of this problem. Free-body force diagram, derivation of differential equations of motion, and C pseudo-code for trapezoidal numerical integration.
