Hey! North Central Florida team formely known as 8471 rebranded as 5842. This year, we decided to step things up a little and cad our robot before building, we prototyped all of these mechs before hand so we know theyll work. no string shooters have been cadded yet as this software made it a little …

You must have more time than me :slight_smile: Good luck on your quest!

How did you make this? I would like to make a 3d model of my robot but I can’t move any of my imports in onshape. Also this is a very good robot.

This software is protobot, it is a little finicky, but it is quite nice

one thing you could have done to still avoid those outer channels that form the roller mech towers is if you extended the shorter inner channels, and then just mounted the roller mech off the front spaced the same with standoffs or pillow bearings or some combination.

What’s the point of the flex wheel in between the omnis on the roller mech? It won’t actually touch the roller, the diameter is smaller. Also, I’d recommend having only 1 traction wheel in you drive, 2 will add turning scrub (although it probably won’t be terrible if they are that close together).

That’s just there for reminder for us, we are still trying to decide what we prefer driver wise as they both are very viable

Nice job! Great to see other florida teams switching to #catagang ! Although I am not competing in FL anymore (or in VRC for that matter), I am interested in seeing how well y’all do this season!

this is gonna be a pain in the butt to load with suck a steep angle
