Hey everyone! Here is a short reveal of the bot that we used for most of the season. It has a couple unique features (PTO, back tilter scores directly on platform, etc), so we decided to make a short video about it. Feel free to leave any questions/suggestions in the replies, and I’ll get back to them as soon as I can. Have a wonderful rest of the season!
I can’t seem to find it I’ve searched everywhere
What do you mean? (20 char)
Nevermind I found it
By the way are u guys a vex u team
Nope, we are a high school team!
Yeah we have a bellefontaine team that is going to nationals and then worlds and they are only a 8th grade team
Nice, congrats on getting to worlds!
Please considering going and subscribing to our youtube channel its B-Town-Bots
pto bussin, the back arm utility epic hopefully see you at worlds (even me in ms i might still go see hs matches)
Nice, hopefully we will see you there! We actually have an ms team in our org as well (293T), so maybe you will see them at worlds as well.
I like the rear goal mech, looks really nice for skills
Yeah, it is pretty useful. For worlds we are rebuilding to a pneumatic version for consistency, but if anyone is using a motorized tilter, I highly recommend this design.
Here is a video detailing the back tilter.
wait are you using 10 motors? I am curious
Nope! We have a transmission/PTO between the intake motors and the drive, so it is still 8 motors. A PTO is a form of motorsharing. Basically, we have two pistons that switch the motors from powering the drive to powering our intake. I can make a video about ours if there is enough interest.
