Have you tried power wheels dealer, ours had them in stock $18 bucks each this years and last years. B.T.W. use the numbers on the motor the ones that FIRST gives out don’t seem to reference to anything there
By the way we didn’t use the window motors or the little pullys this year so you can have ours, hmm what do we want
Drill Motors, Servos, Small Flange Mounted Bearings,
We have recieved many generous offers from other teams.
Thanks!!
Our team leader (gabrielgm@npt.nuwc.navy.mil) is still sorting through all of the rsponses, as well as catching up on some much needed rest. It may be a few days until he responds with information about a trade.
Thanks to all that kindly offered to help. Our thanks to Team 497 are providing a set and they needed a compressor we didn’t.
Best of luck to all in the competition.
PS here’s one of the first pictures of our machine. Seems to work pretty well. Good fast thresher (the new Fisher Price motors drive the belt) and dump. We dump the balls by lifting the back edge of those slats using the window motors and the 1/2inch drive belt. When the back goes up the slats make a ramp and the balls roll out (usualy come out in one big impressive bunch). Doesn’t look like it but it holds 29 balls. We use two drill and two Atwoods for 4 wheel drive. Good speed, not the fastest but very controlable and a good ballance of push/pull power. Think it shoud take a hit and keep on ticking. New York is our first stop so we’ll see.
