Hi! Sorry to bother you all, but can the Huey Bot claw pick up Beams or do we need to build a different claw for that?
Thank you!
I’m not going to state that its impossible but from the hero bots that were built over the summer for our camp, it didn’t seem plausible to pick up a beam. The beams are pretty heavy and Huey isn’t strong enough IMO.
Huey may be able to pick a beam, but it is unlikely based on the weight imbalance the beam will have when picked up by the claw.
Thank you so much!
What claws actually have the capability to pick up beams? The only one I’ve seen online is chewbotca’s 180 robot and the similar ones of that model
The claws of the 180 mech can pick up beams, but the revolver or Huey-type bots cannot.
NOTICE: The Huey bot can pick up beams if there are two working together, one on each side of the beam, but this takes lots of teamwork and precision.
I don’t think you can pick up a beam with a Huey. I once tried, but never succeeded. The reason for this is that there is too much weight in the front. Hope this helps.
