so cool to see yall working with ftc! member of frc 1317 here we were really inspired by your design last year and its great to see yall again this year helping with ftc!
It is a very tricky challenge indeed. We had 2 concepts that didn't work, and a third that kinda did. I believe we will be discussing them more in our tech binder that we hope to release in the next couple of days.
Hi! I really like your guys's hang system, but I'm trying to understand how you're able to achieve this with the motor limit of 8. Where are the motors being distributed, and with the current distribution will your bot be able to complete a level 3 hang?
Currently this robot has 4 motors for driving, one for pivoting the arm, one for extending and one for climbing to the first stage. For the stage 3 climb, we had a number of different prototypes, some which only added one motor and some which added two, but removed the motor used for the original climb.
We use Actobotics X-Rail slides. The kit we are using is quite old, and the Actobotics product line has been discontinued, but there are similar products from goBILDA and REV.
So cool to see how this was implemented

Your intake is nice! It kinda works like a claw, but you don't need to wait for it to close.
I like your top hang concept. We couldn't really come up with a way to get up there. Getting around the first bar seems really tricky.

What were the intake wheels used?
They look like tiny Lego wheels, but I may be wrong
Hi, the wheels are 30mm Traction Wheels from the starter REV kit :)
Oh thanks
What brand of slides did you use?

nice! the spintake is a bit iffy but its nice seeing it implemented
What's bad about spintake?
@@acursedhope I personally just dont have much good experiences with spintakes, too finicky and unreliable for me, but im pretty sure thats just me
@@2_Kan ah gotcha, that's fair
pls ftc teams dont copy them over and over like they did in frc(including my team)
I mean, come on. These robots 🤖 r gunna have a claw or ingestor. Most robots will have almost lot in common.
Then they don’t have to post it
