I like the cheese cake for allowing another robot to climb on at the end game.
I could see some opportunity for cheesecake with a cube manipulator, but for the most part, that’s about it. It’s be hard to keep a climber under the 30lb limit.
Did your keyboard explode? :yikes:
Those letters take place of the apostrophe, something happened there 
I love the idea of having other bots climb on you via a platform or something. Would not only be cool to watch but fun to execute at the end of a match successfully.
It’s even more fun when the bots come crashing down though.
I can taste the tears through this post
The compilation videos at the end of this season are going to be amazing with lots of close robot proximity too. Maybe some chain reactions?
I Think the best bet here is going to be attaching schedule 40 pipes on our bots and relying on other bots to design climbers for the scale. Then just use your bot in place of the scale. Also I’m getting old and don’t understand the cheesecake reference 
It all started (terminology) with Brandon Holley and Mike Coresetto back in 2015

this definitely isn’t a bad idea even my teams one a veteran team that never talks design first 3-4 days of build and my rookie team have both had similar ideas but your robot would need to support for safety purposes up to 400lbs in case two robots hang off yours with batteries and bumpers and would need to raise themselves up higher just so those other robots have a better chance to get over the 12in line.
The consensus on our team is that if you are going to do a chain climb, it makes the most sense to do two robots in the air and a third via Levitate. This will also mean a lower weight on the climbing mechanism of the robot that is directly attached to the Scale.
True, but one of my kids has a locking idea i’m anxious to prototype on Monday to address that.
Yeah, but I mean all you would have to do at the main robot that will climb first is winch yourself up and then you only have to be assured the structure of your hang mechanism can support the weight of the other robots as long as they don’t hook onto you before you finish the climb.
I’d be really interested to see the results! My teams won’t be meeting so I’d love to see any success even just lifting and hold dead weight.
