This is our final iteration of a sack attack competition robot. Made from all aluminum and featuring a 17.75" wide basket. We have a couple more competitions including one this weekend in hopes to qualify for worlds. Feel free to ask any questions and I’ll do my best to answer them.
Features:
-Strafing capabilities
-100% Aluminium construction
-18" wide basket, holds roughly ∞ sacks
-Quick and powerful lift, 4 393’s geared down
-Fast and strong drivetrain, 5 393’s (one for strafe)
-Intake rollers that score and descore sacks without ay jamming (not shown)
-Simple and lightweight structure
We will be taking this to the competition at Cape Elizabeth Highschool on Saturday, hope to see some of you there!
^Please, this. My poor browser. Simple design belies the time you ladies and gentleman most likely put into this robot, as it looks extremely efficient. I like the idea of the enormous basket (infinity sacks, haha).
Why did you decide to opt for small omnis and a strafe wheel instead of the “4-mecanum” build? Also, can your wee beastie score on the high goal?
we did not have the space for 4" wheels with the way our basket is angled so we had to go for the smaller wheels. No it can not score on the high goal, but it can score in the troughs extremely efficiently.
