VEX Change Up Early Season Reveal

YES that is why tank drive is the answer. It’s also not that much slower than the x drive.

Our robot is light making it extremely fast when coded to the max speed for the drive train, even though it’s light we aren’t pushed around easy because of traction wheels on the drive train.

this video says otherwise

That is vex cortex not v5 those motors were bad😂

yeah probably. good luck in comp!

Shifting x drive op :eyes:

And the same to you.:grin:

Assuming you are using pneumatics with that shifter, that leaves 2 extra motors for scoring and descoring balls.

That sounds like a lot of ratchets to me
Changing this to not mess it up but we stop the convo exactly at 50. No one is allowed to talk any more

Yah😂 not much

That legitimately “sounds” awful. :joy:

Nice! I like how the robot de-scores the middle goal. Is their any reason why you didn’t use longer intakes (like other tray lifts and snail bots so far) and instead opted for fixed intakes?

Probably for simplicity

That’s part of it

The reason is they need to be at a fixed angle so it can intake quickly and so it’s consistent in autonomous

I just realized how scuffed up the balls can get by looking at your video.

Yah😂 they get destroyed cause of scraping on the towers you’d think vex would do better😂

It might make a huge difference like if you were to go to worlds with everything new

And the towers flexibility as well
