A 7.5" tall robot. It’s so short that it’s impossible for it not to be able to go under the low bar, unless you put the intake/shooter all the way up and flip the hood up as well.
Geared for 14fps, although that can be changed to up to 16fps by messing with the first stage CIM pulleys. Runs a 4-CIM drivetrain with 6" WCP pneumatic wheels.
Weight is 64lbs without bumpers or battery. It weighs 97lbs with bumpers and battery.
Shooter is powered by a single 775pro due to space concerns, and is at a 20:12 (not sure on that) reduction. The hood uses a REV smart servo and a gear rack to roll in and out up to a 20* change in shooting angle.
The intake and shooter move in and out via a two 775pro motors on a ~150:1 reduction with a VP and a small gear reduction. Hard stops are rubber and are integrated into the 4-bar linkage.
Not shown: a string that pulls the ball guide up so that the ball rests against it properly before the shot, rivets, encoders, a few screws here and there, and a couple mounting plates and wires for electronics. That being said, all the electronics are in there. I have space for the encoders but neglected to add them because I was so done with this project after the first few days.
CAD will be available on the 2015 offseason release, because I still haven’t moved anything to a 2016 offseason folder.
Things I would change/add:
-Encoders
-Climber (there’s a design for one, but I haven’t the heart to finish it)
-Extra shooter motor
-Better bumper supports (a welded sheet metal plate in the front and back would have done wonders)
and:
-CDF/Portcullis attachment.
Surprisingly, this was harder to do than a climber, at least in the packaging I wanted. I could tack it onto the intake with everything else, but as I said before I got really tired of this. Working inside the tiny envelope was fun, but definitely not something I would want to do in-season. That being said, I would be reasonably confident building this robot IRL.
I forgot to mention, the colors are blue and gold to match the colors of a new rookie team coming up next year!
