Everyone who has posted on this thread has brought about a lot of different ideas to the plate. Before it was just a simple 1 course meal in my mind. But when you post something on CD with tons of engineers and engineers in the making, your bound to have a feast!! - gallo26 [more] |

A better look at our kicker, ball magnet, and drive system from the 2815/1398 collaboration.
The kicker was powered by a CIM motor through an AndyMark GEM gearbox, with a cam to $@#$@#$@#$@# it back. The surgical tubing required to get a good kick was a little much for the structural integrity of the robots; neither team's kicker survived the season.
The drive system was easily the craziest of either team's before or since, a six-motor, two-speed, plaction-wheeled beast that ensured both had all the defensive chops one needed.
Still, with 1398 winning Palmetto that year with 343 and 1261, we must've done something right!
