Impressed as always! Very nice robot 3937 we will see you in Little Rock! Excited to compete with you guys again!
Can’t wait to compete with you guys at Arkansas and Bayou! Good luck!
Congratulations on a very nice machine. I got to see it in action last night. Arkansas Rock City Regional is going to be fun!
So proud of what we’ve accomplished! It’s gonna be a great senior year for me!
What led to the decision to use 4x CIMs + 2x 775Pros in the drivetrain over 6CIMs?
We debated for a while driving strategy and the aggressiveness versus speed of our drive train. We decide to use 1x775 pro per side due to weight. We did use a VEX pro CIM-ile to place the 775 pro in the train and its output speed does not match the CIMs, so we had to do a little coding change in the LabVIEW class to allow the 775 pros to turn at a slower speed.
Looks like a highly competitive robot! Love the name!
