Robot Progress
Drive Train
The robot has six wheels with two high-traction wheels in the middle
We are using chain to connect the wheels to to a pneumatic shifting gear box
Talon motor controllers for driving motors
Our drive train design is very compact and clean
- Catapult
Our shooter was designed early on and a prototype was made
The final design uses surgical tubing and winch system to pull back the shooter
The frame is made out of aluminum square tubing
We are using a shifting gear box with Sim and Mini-Sim
- Pickup
A design for the pickup is currently being worked on
