1200f

below is a pic of our bot. We have four 369 motors on our drive 1:1.6 ratio, a pneumatic claw for scoring and de-scoring, and a gear box powered by 6 three wire motors. since the picture was taken there have been a few improvements to the bot including a enhanced system for de-scoring, not gunna release that yet tho! :smiley:

feedback would be greatly appreciated!

cant see pic
also the DRIVE is 1:6???
geared up or down?
and are you even using wheels?
maybe 24t sprockets or something?
because 1:6 for even the smallest wheels is wayy over the physical limits of vex

im also on this team and when we say 1:6 we are referring to the internal gearing of the 369 motors. When they are geared for speed the ratio is 1:6

ahh now that makes sense :slight_smile:
its 1:1.6 btw

It`s 1:1.6 haha. I was like 1:6 O______________________O

our bad
anyway, we’re workin on getting the pic to work but if you want to see our bot you can watch the video in either of our signatures.
It has changed a little since the time the video was taken but its basicly the same

sorry for the mass confusion everyone lol. anyway…

sweet pneumatic claw
did you get “inspired” by 1103’s claw? :wink:
there is a local robot with a pneumatic claw also
its a very good way to have 2 access motors to use somewhere else

wow three pneumatic tanks

ahh…looks pretty iffy adam and greg…

lol jk u dominate our peecoot

this is one of the fastest bots i have personally seen. it is a very well built bot and have had to compete against it a lot in practice. Great job guys!

thanks, we rle like the fast action pneumatic claw and yes 1103s claw gave us the idea but we designed our own. We used the extra 2 motors to make our lift faster and we’re pretty happy with it.

we like the extra power we get outa the pneumatics with the third tank opposed to using two and having to turn down the preassure a bit!

your bot is sooooooo fast! with 3 tanks you for sure get enough shots for the match if you were to have problems. good choice one 3 tanks—who told you guys to do that anyways?

probably someone who tells ppl they speed up videos…

lol

maybe…

DAKOTA IS SO MAD RIGHT NOW!!!

I KNOW brunn
dakota is SOOOO MAD that both of our bots are better than his :stuck_out_tongue:

how true this is…

greg is so mad. jacob just made a photocopy of his math homework and im gunna hand it in the Mrs. R.

too far… WAY TOO FAR!!!
