I don’t know how many people out there accually get to be the robot!! All I know is that we need to install a chair on it and a seat belt! Because you never know how fast your team mates will take you or were they will take you or what they will run you into!!! Oh by the way I was the weight for our drivetrain as we were testing out different things with our drivetrain.
HAHA! Last year i had to sit on the stretcher and get in the goal for robot testing… NEVER AGAIN! Thats was something to forget…
It is possible to connect the RC directly to the OI, thereby giving the rider the chance to drive as well…
Just a thought.
Heehee - Last year we needed to move our robot from the Tech Center to the Commons (across the school) - this was after our competitions and such. So instead of carrying TOBOR (which had tank-tracks) we attached the stretcher to it and had one of our members sit on the stretcher with the controls in his lap. TOBOR was albe to pull himi all the way to the commons which was pretty cool! He must’ve weighed about 130ish… Lol, good times, good times

we have built a battery pack for ours!! so we no longer need an outlet or direct connection!!!
I don’t advise you to do this unless i give you the instructions on how we did this!!!
Maybe I will get some pics on here if i can get some!
