Our final 2012 robot.
Thanks to all of our mentors/students/volunteers/teachers for another successful build season.
Glenn,
Very clean looking robot! Can’t wait to see it at Lone Star.
Good luck this season!
I really like this. Probably has to do with the fact that much of the upper mech. is similar to our bot. Good luck!
That’s awesome. How do the bumpers attach to the sides where the wheels are?
Looks awesome guys! Can’t wait to see it on the field.
As always, the Kids have done an awesome job! Hope to see you in St. Louis!
Steve
If you look carefully at the pic, you will see mounting holes at the top of the frame on the sides.
Really looking forward to seeing it out on the field at Lone Star. Very, very clean and professional-looking.
Good luck!
One of the better looking bots with this design. Good job guys!
Very nice looking robot, can’t wait for you to come visit Houston.
A couple questions,
Is that a FP motor in the gearbox driving your torrent?
Also does the PG71 on your hood drive a rack and pinion setup or something else?
Most likely they have a geartooth profile laser/water cut into a plate on their hood, creating a curved rack and pinion setup.
Nice looking robot Glenn!!
We hope to see you in St. Louis!!
If any of the other teams from Hawaii (2437, 2443, 2439) need anything in Portland point them our way. We will be happy to help.
Bob,
thanks for the offer…we will forward the message to the other HI teams.
Allen,
For our robot, we dont have a PG71 for the aperture of the shooter.
Its actually a P60 Banebot 256:1 transmission with a 550.
The rack and pinion is not laser-cut into the curved aluminum. However, we hope to have that capability by next school year.:rolleyes:
Its the same 25 chain setup being driven by a pinion gear as our turret, that does use the FP motor/plastic gearbox setup.
thanks
