Cause it’s Texas r3 and no one is running color sensors in r3 I’m pretty sure

W bot? 5013X in dome?

@@poet-ro2df 🥱

Its more of the travel time from the bottom to the top takes a while

There's a risk for triple possession, its better to make your robot physically not be able to possess 3 rings at the same time

Very dependent on the ref. As long as the rings don’t come into contact with the intake, it is considered a flat surface. That said, I have heard of teams getting warned/dq’ed for this.

@@chromaV5RC its definitely a hard call but its most likely that you just wanna be safe with it

It’s legal if it contacts only one face in the concavity

There is an official Q&A that deals with this case. Refer to Q&A 2182 @ClowdFPS

it isnt, as you are controlling it with a flat section of your robot. the right angle doesn't make it concave. if it was touching the sweeper and the intake then maybe but it wasnt.

2 inches

yea poly and shit can be red u just need to buy it

@ na isn’t it a G3 hazard

@@LaurenceChen886R r19, in this case his red poly counts as off the shelf plastic sheets and is legal.

@@JamieZhang-wt1nf maybe

Still won 🔥 we’re too good 🥶

It’s evolving 💀

They're called flexwheels

they are alternatively stacked lol

You can make them 5.5 watt motors

i assume you can just gear both sides to a singular motor. torque won't be a issue because it doesnt even take that much power to pick the rings up.

pto your db motors to ur intake problem solved

If we were to put this on our robot we would have 2 5.5 watt motors like we have in the video on the intake.,1 for rd4b and 6 for drive train.

@@5013X_VRC I don't know dr4b normally need two motors because of the weight couldn't you just link the two on the intake with a chain and then have two for your dr4b. I'm thinking of doing of doing a DR4B for next year but I was thinking of designing a passive intake or one that uses pistons.

I found that if you spin just one side as you pull out you can descore, it’s not consistent but with a bit of tweaking I’m sure I could get it there.

@@5013X_VRCis this with or without holding down the base. If not than does it work while holding down the base?

@@wyattkfr7484 without

@@5013X_VRC could you try descoring while holding down the base?

Absolutely go right ahead. but site your source to look good for the judges. 👍

Do you still have it on

@@CaressingEmu24 I did but it broke off

@@CaressingEmu24 it broke 😢

In most cases yes but the advantage of this is that you would be able to drop or pick up 1 at a time so this has the potential to be better.

⁠​⁠@@5013X_VRC yeah that’s true and I think this could descore well

nah, continuous (roller) intakes are always better imo. touch it own it

@@questcstop stealing my ideas

You are everywhere lol

If we use this design we would have in mounted on some sort of arm so after we drop it we would just lower the arm to push it on.

Nah you can’t drop the rings onto the goal they need to be pushed so I think plunger is meta

@@5013X_VRC that’s what i was thinking but intake will still reign superior with a bit of tweaking as it has more versatility and less complex moving parts

not an intake game

@@vasishtbatchu69 how u gonna score it on the neutral and alliance goals then

You can have a clamp behind it that goes around the circular portion of the plunger if that makes sense

I’d say it definitely beats an intake

in this year i think intake like tipping point will not take too much advantage than claw or plunger

Can always just have a dedicated descore mech like in RoundUp

Brought a tear to my eye 🥲

enough to make a grown man cry

I would disagree seeing as you can’t consistently drop rings onto the mogo as there is a bit of a cap so they will have to have something to push them on

@@5013X_VRC think this design would probably work better with hollow insides so it can go all the way down the stake to push it consistently but idk how tight the stakes are

@@6121FRobotics we thought of this aswell but this design was a bit easier to make so as our first prototype this is what we came up with

@@5013X_VRC blud doesnt know the strat

@@5013X_VRCthe cap is designed to be easy to put rings in but hard to take rings out it’s not wide enough to block the rings from falling in naturally also it’s rubber

we feel that mecanum wheels dont give us the pushing power we want and also they are just a little harder to fit.

@@5013X_VRC oh ok I don’t do vex so I was just wondering

@@jaydon738honestly, since this year's VEX game has a very quick pace, mechanum wheels are worse than normal or omni wheels.

Next robot it gonna be 10x better trust

we used lasercut polycarbonate, we made the design in onshape and make sure it worked before cutting it

womp womp

the old pneumatics solenoids and fittings are much lighter

@@1138B-NotAdi We are first year so we dont have access to older pnuematics, If you would like to donate we would graciously accept.

You're a first year team? When I was in my first year (spin up), I had a flimsy pushbot.

Just a lil bit, it never failed but the one time it did it actually matter, Difference between us getting our first trophy or not.

hmmm, the only advice i can give is to test ‘till failure, identify points of failure, eliminate them until you get consistency, and afterwards test in a suboptimal environment and repeat the process until you weed out everything that can go wrong. gl at worlds!
