946R Tipping Point reveal + single cylinder MOGO mech videos

No teasers! No waiting! Just straight to the point lobsters!

To put many words simply, I really enjoyed this season, not necessarily because of the game, but because of the people we were surrounded by in Colorado for a season, along with Iowa for 3 days. It was good. We’ll be around for one more season. Thank you to all of those who were a part of this (especially the ones who put a lobsticker on their bot!), let’s do this one more time.

Now straight to the point!

robot specs? also why do you use traction wheels in the back versus Omnis?

4 motor 280rpm drive
2 motor 100 rpm lift
1 motor 100 rpm clamp
1 motor 600 rpm conveyer
1 double acting cylinder goal tilter

The traction over Omni question is more answered by just not putting too much attention into robotics this year. We chose a traction wheel at all because that’s just how I like driving, and we don’t like being pushed. There wasn’t much reason for the back over the front other than a nice back pivot to aim at goals. We chose rubber over Omni simply because we never found the time or effort to lock an Omni to make it a traction.

Hope that answers it, I kind of just woke up

Anyone else notice that at 1:16 the tall goal post is just laying there on the ground? I’d like to know what happened that match…

I have no idea what you’re talking about.

In the top video at the time 1:16 there is the tall goal post but no base I am just wondering what happened that match.

Haha I’m just messing with you. That was a tournament run by a rookie organization (same one that hosted the controversial state tournament).
The goals weren’t assembled great and it popped out during finals. Not match affecting, but it just wobble wobbled out
