315 Post States Mini-Reveal

We think that this is a relatively unique robot, so we would like to show a short video before taking it apart.

If anyone has any questions or would like some pictures, please PM me :slight_smile:

How does the flicker work?

NorCal Meta???

the flicker seems to work by releasing the little square bar holding the tension back, as seen directly undernearth the claw

The entire claw can pivot around the lift arms. Normally, the rubberbands hold it down so it’s like a “normal” claw, but the bar that’s mounted onto our parallelogram pulls the entire claw down until a certain point of the lift. When it reaches this point, the bar slips, and the rubberbands pull the claw so it’s flush with the lift arms again.

Absolutely insane robot. What was the process of building this robot? Also, how did it fare against some of the strong teams in NorCal, such as 5772 and 8000H?

That is a beautiful robot

Wow, that is very innovative design there. How has it done in match-play?

Been working with these guys for a while, The flick is key meta confirmed.

Crazy performance in matches, can confirm that the flick will be the worlds meta design.

Can confirm that this robot is very effective.

Thanks! Unfortunately, we were no match against the retired 5772 and the powerhouse 8000H. The ingenious flywheel design of 5772 overwhelmed us easily, and we couldn’t match their speed at all. 8000H’s pushbot also defeated us relatively easily, pushing clumps of over 10 stars under the fence in elimination rounds.

Thank you very much!

Thanks! This robot competed under 315 starting from Gael Force Battle of the Bay. Since then, it has had a record of 32/7/0 in qualification matches.

@Eric Wang First of all, great robot! May I ask what you mean by 5772’s flywheel design?

He probably was joking, as 5772 hasn’t competed this season (and so their latest robot would’ve been a flywheel from NBN)

@discovery Thanks, lol. For a second I was wondering if it really could be done.
