I legit thought that was duct tape.

Meanwhile we barely have 8 motors

what.

New traction wheels?

I doubt you ever got up to full speed. Take it a long hallway or your school’s gym or something and give it a try there.

Yep
 that’s my team!


Now this
 this is amazing. PLEASE GO INTO COMPETITION WITH THIS. you would genuinely have a chance of winning. You could just YEET all the goals. This is the perfect robot

Just add a pneumatic clamp on the front (and back if you want), doesn’t have to be crazy just something so you can actually control the goals in reverse. You win the goal rush every time and you can basically just fly across the field.

:full_moon_with_face: thanks for the idea

It’s terrifying I love it

How well does that work?

This may be reviving an old post but I wanted to say a am a little offended.

Really though, I am pretty good at building, sometimes I tell the builders to do stuff so that it isn’t jank.

How does it release, does the motor just spin the other way?

Manual release, you have to undo the chain.

Quite well from my early testing, the polycarb retainers are much cleaner than using a bunch of zipties. But I did have to trim down the width of the hub to be the same as the width of the traction wheel, which I also had to sand down to a smaller diameter, roughly 2.8”.

Yeah, we should just show up at Indiana state with this as our robot :joy:. Honestly, we would lose almost every round, but it would be fun.

Since the GIF, we have attached flex wheel bumpers to the sides so it ricochets off the walls now.

We call it “Bumper bot”.
