How to increase intake efficiency?

Are there any tricks to making the robot intake cubes more quickly? No pictures available until monday.

Make sure your tray angle isn’t too high and have your intakes be as close to parallel with your tray as you can. Those are, in my opinion, the big two.

They are perfectly inline with tray, I am talking about actually feeding them into it, it pushes them up amazingly up the tray its just a matter of getting it to actually intake them up into the feed

Do you mean getting the cubes off the ground?

Yes 20 characters and a few more

Ah. Well, do you have any pictures of your intakes? You want to try to have the contact point of the cube be just over the middle. Then, it can’t be too close to the front of the tray.

Not rn, but I can get some tomorrow

add intake boosters to them. Put a sprocket or something underneath of on top of your intakes and boom.

Right now I am trying to increase the length of the intake itself in order to start picking up the cube sooner, will update on what works

I had trouble with that too. My issue was where it contacted the cube. Try mid-high part, as that is what worked best for me.
