What methods are you guys using to pick up rings
I would say in this game, a flex wheel intake that feeds into a conveyor would be the most efficient method to score on mobile goals.
Hey welcome to the forums!
As someone else has stated, some teams are running a hook and flex wheel intake, but nothing beats in-person experimentation, this question is the perfect reason to build different intakes and write this into your notebook.
by the way, there have been several topics on this so make sure you use the search tab before making a post.
Thanks I will try that
Pretty much everyone seems to be using intakes with flex wheels. So much so that flex wheels are out of stock on Vex. Look up intakes on Youtube and you’ll see a bunch.
Most teams use the flex wheel roller stage, however, you can run a bot with just (a) hook(s) and still have a working system (see: 1000A Pits and Parts on FUN youtube channel).
Our robot uses a flex wheel intake system with rings attached, for accuracy and speed.
We are using flex wheel intake, but hook works well too.
