Our flywheel can’t shoot the top goal. When we put the ball into the basket, and then push the indexer, it hits the middle of the two goals and goes into the bottom goal. It also makes the wheels, slow down when we push the indexer. Ho do we fix this problem! Please help us! We have a competition on Mar. 15, 2025. If you can help us, than thanks very much!
How fast is your flywheel going? It can depend on speed where it has to be faster to be able to hit the top goal. you could also make an angler for your flywheel where it can angle it and would be able to hit that top goal.
Ok thanks, we will definitely have to try that
We had the save issue as well, if your flywheels don’t shoot after adjusting it many times. make sure your flywheels are well spaced out.
If you are also using pneumatics to push the ball into the flywheels, add some rubber bands to increase the output speed. Make sure you unhook the rubber band once you finish with your robot, else you will have to retention it again, and the solution is temporally.
Also make sure your battery percentage is the same or similar for every test/match.
