FRC 1675, The Ultimate Protection Squad, is proud to present our 14th robot: Toothless. Yes, there are a couple of things missing from this photo (like the ramp extension flaps on the front), but the important stuff is there.
Quick Facts:
6 miniCIM drive
6" Traction + Omni (though may still switch to full traction)
Ballshifters (6ft/s - 16ft/s)
Dual 10:1 775 roller claw with AM compliant wheels
Arm driving by miniCIM 315:1 total reduction
Dual front facing ramps at 17 degrees with powered lift
Designed for quick switch play and end game but dragons do spit fire…
Competing at Miami Valley (week 1) and Milwaukee (week 4)
After carrying the ramps yesterday I can confirm I was scared for my fingers. Fortunately the saw-like properties of the perforated aluminum edges have been resolved.
What an awesome ramp design! May I inquire how the ramps work? Are they pneumatically lifted to get to the 11-12"?
Do you all expect to have issues with wcd bot’s bumpers snowplowing into the ramp? Through some CAD analysis, we found any ramp angle larger than 16.5 degrees would interfere with any 2" clearance wcd bot’s bumpers.
