Remembering the best

  1. There are some part libraries that some teams have released on the vexforum which you can just search for. You can also find each part have its CAD file at the bottom of its page on vexrobotics.com
  2. You can find tutorials on places such as youtube or Autodesk themselves have a tutorial on their own website. Autodesk Fusion 360 | Learning and Support Resources
  3. It is not that hard. They have a very well built software which is easy to learn over a couple of week. I would also recommend you to look into autodesk inventor if you are using a windows computer and you do not need to switch computers frequently. Both of these can be had for free through the autodesk student program.

If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.

Best parts library I have found:

Vex has a whole curriculum for CAD assemblies(of the claw bot), I recommend doing that and then just trying your best and using the Autodesk website when you get stuck.
https://curriculum.vexrobotics.com/curriculum/intro-to-autodesk-inventor/building-the-clawbot.html

You can get any autodesk software for free as a student, it takes some time to download but its not hard.

PS. I recommend inventor, there is more support for Vex for Inventor(hence the tutorial) and it is more common in a lot of places

Hey Guys, I talked to Zach and made a model.
Here is 62a from ITZ:

@Zach_929U Could you do a CAD of the 2020 World Champions robots?

rip


Here is the CAD of the 2020 World champion use your imagination :frowning_face:

Funny enough, I also talked to zach about modelling 62a. I’ve only really had time to work on it recently with the quarantines, but here’s mine.

Looks like yours is more accurate. I couldn’t be bothered to properly match colors or fiddle with electronics. @Max_Johnson03 which robot will you be doing next? Id like to avoid another repeat.

wait is this best bots or what

I suggest reading the Original Post.

Personally, I would love to see a CAD of @7K_Robotics’s TT robot, as it had the highest international skills score. No worlds to have a champion, but they are one of the best that TT has seen.

yes that would be awesome

what about 8000 star struck robot?

Im not sure if someone already said this or even CADed it but their robots were perty neat.

I don’t know. I will think about it for a little bit

2105 nbn i can send a yt link if needed

Think @Zach_929U has already worked out a list of robots.
Do see the earlier posts to see what are the robots that are in the list.

And also, it is about remember the BEST… so… we do need to be a bit more stringent over here.

We have another robot everyone!
Please welcome team 929U from Turning Point:



And then with another robot from Turning Point - 169A

Newest Addition–
Introducing 7K’s tower takeover robot.




Additional renders and the STEP file should be uploaded to drive, so max’s link works here as well. I encourage everybody to download and take a look at this amazing robot. There’s a lot to be learned!
Thanks @7K_Robotics for working with me, and good luck in virtual worlds!

Do you know how 929U did the axle across to connect their intake flaps? I’m pretty sure their drive was wider than a HS axle.

Epic; I’m glad that beauty could be rendered

@ThirdDegree what modeling software are you using? are you using imates?
