The 2023 Robonauts Everybot Low Resource Build

Hello y’all, I am super excited to announce another vector of Everybot support: FIM’s Virtual Robotics Studio. The Studio is dedicated to bringing quality educational robotics videos to FIRST teams throughout the world. Our first series will provide FRC teams with detailed, step-by-step videos and accompanying resources to guide them through the construction of the Robonauts’ Everybot. Hosted by instructor Dan Kimura, 2 time world champion with team 469, we hope these videos can take your Everybot the the next level.

We just posted our chassis build video for the Robonauts’ 2023 Everybot. I will be posting future releases here and linking them in the Everybot discord. All videos can also be found on the FirstinMichigan Youtube channel and organized with a table of contents on the FIRSTinMichigan website.

Edit, just realized I linked to the wrong video, it now links to the chassis build.

This is one the best FRC instructional videos I have ever scene. I can only imagine the amount of work that went into producing this and getting this project going. Thank you, Dan, and the rest of the group doing this.

I think everyone can learn things from watching Dan build the Everybot AndyMark Chassis, and I’m sure we will all learn even more with the rest of the robot construction videos in the coming weeks.

That is really impressive. I could see a lot of teams doing really well with this design and some drive practice.

This didn’t age well; everybot ended up doing MORE than we’re planning.

Are there plans to have a video if it doing a mock match? I’d be cool to see a bit more on how it looks and drives in long form.

This robot is insane! It can win many events.

This Everybot can do Every-thing. All jokes aside, an incredible bot this year. This elevates the playing field quite a bit!

FIRST In Michigan talked about doing something similar after they finish their build instruction videos, mock game with a few Ri3d robots.

Just to link in some history

In 2020 Ferris state had a mockup comp for a few matches with the ri3d folks. I don’t think FiM was involved. It was on FUN.

I think >50% of FRC teams would be dumb not to just build this robot. It’s unreal…

I do think it warrants a discussion about whether it’s too good, and what that means for the sport. I don’t want that conversation to take away from the amazing work by the Everybot team. This is truly amazing and game-changing work.

It’s a low cost competitive concept. I will raise h*ll if people think:

“it’s too good”

We have been over this a million times on this forum: “…but those kids aren’t learning engineering”

This just shifts where teams can spend there time and opens more doors. If it is too good then the rest of us need to git gud and raise the ceiling even more.

Well done everybot team.

I’m very excited to look at the CAD for the intake in particular. I think that might be one of the most influential early build season resources FRC has ever seen. We certainly plan to take inspiration from the concept and incorporate it into our design.
