Seems like it’s going to be more like a Robot in 3 Weeks ![]()
Maybe reveal video in a couple weeks but the robot itself is more or less built.
Sorry for the delay. Everyone scattered at the end of the third day and we realized that nobody took video for the reveal. We will try to finish the video asap.
@aaronlucas post the raw video ![]()
Lol you guys are talking about the robot. I’m looking at the sweet shop in the background. Idk where you guys are but it looks absolutely amazing.
Looks like Rolling Robots to me.
I’d have to agree, where
Kudos to y’all on the neat workspace!
Very nice.
If you don’t mind me asking, what is the gear ratio of your lift/catapult?
I just released that I never posted the code for the robot. I’ll leave it here if anyone is remotely interested:
And stay tuned! Videos coming soon (I hope)…
git add, git commit, git gud
Will there be a possibility that the reveal will be out before August?
Sorry for the EXTREME delay on the video, a couple of issues emerged but were solved. Anyways, if the video is still helpful to anyone here is the link: VEX Ri3d 2016-2017 - YouTube
Once again I am personally very sorry for the delay and for any troubles it caused anyone; I take full responsibility.
If anyone has any questions about the design, please ask, I am sure anyone on the team can help! The point of this project is to inspire people and get them asking questions.
I cant also stress how helpful rolling robots were in making this whole thing possible. If you are in the LA area, I highly recommend checking them out at rollingrobots.com, their workplace and members were a delight to work with.

Wow, very cool.
I love how fast the hang is.
Great job on showing off your design process in the video.
Can you accurately hang during autonomous?
There are so many new and unique concepts in this robot, so don’t be surprised if many of them get copied.
That robot is so smart! I never thought of a 4 bar lift that can also be a catapult, and that’s very creative!
Do you have to do something special at the start of the match in order to fit the 18x18x18 limit? It would appear that way becuas of the hanging mechanism
3:54 - 4:13 in the reveal video.
The first time the catapult fires it looks with the hanging mechanism. Initially both are down.
Shows me for commenting before finishing the video. Great robot, btw
After this, are you going to keep with launching for your competitions, or are you going to try to explore dumper bots and defensive bots (wallbots)?
Awesome job!
