impressive bot, aside from increasing the power of the launcher, I think you might want to adjust the placement on the priming arms so that the launcher doesn't shoot both disks at the same time but rather shoots them in a more machine gun type of motion. That might help prevent disks from hitting each other which might improve precision. I do VRC so I don't know if that would be possible on IQ though. Just a thought. But overall a really good robot.
Thank you very much! I will keep in mind to make the discs not shoot at the same time while designing future shooters! And yes, it is possible in IQ too :)
This is a rather interesting robot. The magazine and shooter are very well done, but the shooter could be a bit stronger to reach the four-point zone. As for the intake, while it seems to be functioning fine, I find that it works better when you use the chain to pick the disks off the floor with the help of the ramp piece. It's faster and has fewer components compared to this one. But, overall, this is a very cool robot!
Yes, the reason I chose to use an intake instead of chains, was because I wanted the intake to be wide for getting discs to prevent continuously aiming for getting discs. However I also believe that by using chains would make the process of intaking faster. Thank you for the advice ^^, I would make sure to increase the shooter power in future prototypes!
Btw, I also saw your robot in 12hrs!! It is insane that you guys built that in such a short amount of time. I really liked the shooter of your robot, the speed and power would my goal in the future. Thank you :)
Hey! I know you probably wont reading this, but I need help on the purple dispenser mechanism, mine is not working flawlessly, can you help me please? (Our competition is like in a few days, I tried a travel wheel for the purple dispenser, but it wont work, I know you probably won't respond to this but can you guys send images on how you built the Rubber band cylinder? Please and thank you!)
This generation of robot cannot empty the blue dispenser, but the newer generations can all do. second gen: th-cam.com/video/kMekuXIzwu8/w-d-xo.html third gen: th-cam.com/video/lD8CjPZQQJI/w-d-xo.html fourth gen: th-cam.com/video/hAXIjDPQzdg/w-d-xo.html please also look forward to the fifth gen robot reveal :)
Very nice robot! I just don’t understand why the disk needs to flip over when the robot intakes it. It just seem like an unnecessary step that adds even more complexity and failure points.
When we made our intake, we thought of two ways to get discs off the floor. One is to not flip the discs by using chains and the ramp piece, but this makes the intake smaller which requires continuously aiming for discs. Then we saw the hero bot "snap shot" design which flips over the disc while intaking. This way we can have a wider intake and decrease aiming time. However, I agree that it adds more complexity and it cannot spin fast. Thank you for replying and the advice! I'll make sure that we make the robot better in the next prototype!
Sorry, I program my robot using Robot C, and not Arduino. Also, I don't provide code or building instructions in robot reveal videos. Maybe I will make an programming tutorial in the future :)
Sad to see you go, truly an icon to slapshot. Wherever life takes us, I always end up here
Gotta appreciate the design that went into this.
Thank you so much, my team has just begun vex iq and are a bit stuck but this has given me and my team lots of inspiration
I am very glad to hear that! Good luck to you and your team!!
Thank You so much im on a school team and this really gave our team lots of inspiration
Thank You!
Dang that’s what we call a genius who’s more genius than genius :0 6699B Unicorn Puncher is so cool
Aww Thank you Joey
lol if you look at the things that are being posted now versus 2 years ago, there's a giant difference. oh also, that disc transfer is very cool!
Haha, people improve and learn by time. I am also surprised by the giant difference people can change in such a short time. Thanks for your reply.
Hİ Purin Chan I like this robot very much, so we decided to make it, I would appreciate it if you could post the parts list.
Nice! This gave me a lot of inspiration!
Glad to hear that!
Insane Robot , Maybe you could make the launcher stronger but overall great robot! Also your intake idea is a great idea!
Thank you ^^, the intake was very hard to adjust lol.
We are also using that idea so it may a problem for us :)
Oh yeah, I recommend that you make the intake faster

My robot is like that too it has intake and we use a puncher too thanks for the help for adjusting
balanced design and shape, decent function! well done :))

that intake design is very unique :)
thank you :)
Awesome job!
Would recommend changing the rotation on those cams. Having the two sides shoot a different tomes would lower stress and probably improve shooting.
the robots very refined! I love how the simple robots might be the ones to win worlds
neat
Very nice.
Amazing one!
is there a manual please?
this was from last years vex robotics game, slapshot. This year there is a new challenge.
Just letting you know, adding less torque ratio on the shooter makes it shoot further. I would use 2:3
Yes, I also use 2:3 for this robot's shooting ratio. Thank you for your advice!
@@PurinChan wow! cool
Interesting intake
Thank you ^^
Noice
Thanks ^^

Hey, is it possible for you to send us some hi quality photos of the robot. Our team has been inspired and are trying to make this robot
What is the max points unicorn puncher can score?
We haven't tried using this robot to score, because we immediately designed a new robot. I will keep an eye of the score in future robots.
hello, can you share a step by step picture please?🙃
Nice bot, will be really good if you increase the power of the launcher.
Thank you for the advice, I will keep that in mind while designing our next prototype :)

you can tell as how you do the robot i want same aideos
Does this robot follow the rules?
Oof good question, cuz I don't remember, sorry about that
Is there any instructions besides a video?
I am sorry, currently I only uploaded this video, and there are no other instructions. Thank you for your reply.
