For shooting into the speaker, it’s full power on both. For into the amp, it’s something like .2 on the shooter cim and full power on the kicker cim

thank you so much@@SteelCityRoboticsAlliance

3” pvc pipe rollers

I think we were running the Neo vortexes at 60% power in this short, we were not measuring RPMs

Each roller has a Neo Vortex with a hex axle going through it, which then are connected to hex hubs press fit into plywood, that was then press fit into PVC pipe

Our intent was trying to show improvements to the kitbot using as few resources as possible for any teams that have a hard time sourcing parts. I'm sure there is a simple way to add a ground intake, but we did not have quite enough time to try out any solutions

@@SteelCityRoboticsAlliance Okay that’s awesome. Congrats, you guys did an amazing job!

In its current state, and with our simulated stage, it needs to be in the center. Once we get the stage built at our field, I think the hook geometry could be slightly changed to accommodate hanging away from the center, as the hooks already prevent the robot from sliding laterally on the chain.

They are 3" PVC pipes. We have thought about adding something after the rollers (either a half roller or a side wheel) to give it spin, but it works well enough closer to the speaker to proceed without adding spin for the Ri3D robot

The star shaped wheels are: wcproducts.com/products/wcp-0338 There are similar star wheels available from Andymark: www.andymark.com/products/compliant-stars The blue wheels are: www.andymark.com/products/2-in-compliant-wheels-options The small black wheels are small mecanum wheels to vector the game piece towards the center, but I do not know the source

​@SteelCityRoboticsAlliance thanks!

The original cardboard version had no compression at all, this version (PVC) the rollers are 12 inches wide - if we had time we would try having no compression again (the cardboard version without horizontal compression had more consistent performance) but we are sticking with the 12 inch rollers because they work well enough and we don’t have longer PVC in house

Yes, two Neo vortexes

1.5 inch gap between 3 inch PVC pipe (or cardboard tubing)

It's using 2 Neo Vortex motors

@@SteelCityRoboticsAlliance what compression and gear reduction, and are there any flywheels?

1.5 inch spacing between rollers, no weight other than the cardboard and wood rollers, using 2 Neo vortexes directly on a hex shaft - so no gear reduction

@@SteelCityRoboticsAlliance what diameter rollers for surface speed calcs?

G414?
