Our November Robot:
Comment any questions and improvements we could make
Happy Robot Building!
Looks good, but I think you can improve your mogo lift, and your autonomous. If you could get a mogo in the 20 in auton, I think along with some driver skill you could win tournament champion pretty easily. But also in the video I don’t remember seeing it internally stack. I assume it can, but if it can’t you should most definitely make it capable of that.
Your chain bar ratio is really really slow. Spend $30 on aluminum and make it a 1:3 ratio.
In your auton, if you turn your bot starting position 180 degrees, you could drive forward and pick up the mobile goal, and place a cone on top with the preload cone as you drive backwards and turn into the 5, 10, or 20 point zones.
Until they speed up their lift, it’s probably faster for them to externally stack so they don’t have to move it so much.
I think you could make he mogo lift smaller, but that is just a guess.
I think the mogo lift could be a little fine tuned in terms of stress on the motor. Are you using any sensors on the mogo lift?
Yeah even a simple limit switch would probably help
