[@Jordan-wd7vv]

op as usual

[@olliedaoriginal]

what is the point of the one-time puncher??? is that for auton?
also is your cata/slapper ratcheted? (doesnt seem like it cuz there wouldnt be any point anyways)
and if you need two people to match load, do like have a button you press, and then the slapper just shoots for a certain amount of time?
lastly, cant you also ratchet the cata/slapper gear to be able to elevate instead of balance?

[@chevy3096]

1. we just use it for solo autonomous win point
2. there wasn’t a ratchet in the video, but we added one later to reduce motor strain.
3. since we have 3 members for our drive team, 2 members match load while our driver holds the cata button to continuously shoot
4. yes, we could’ve. however we decided to use a balance mechanism to allow an alliance to potentially hang on the low bar, increasing our total points.

[@olliedaoriginal]

@@chevy3096 thanks for the response! for the ratchet on the slapper, why would you need one though? if you're not going to use it unless you are match loading, and if you have no reason to stop the slapper in the loaded position, then wont the ratchet just create friction?
additionally, throughout the entire video, why was the intake was passively spinning?
and lastly (sorry for so many ?s), would you recommend the wings or the intake for scoring?

[@chevy3096]

@@olliedaoriginal for some reason my first reply got deleted lmao but here it is
we wanted a ratchet on the slapper because we can only go under the elevation bar from the front, or if the slapper is down. with a ratchet, we would be able to hold the slapper down the whole match and go under the bar both directions. you are correct that the ratchet could create friction, but if done properly, it should be unnoticeable.
the intake was spinning passively because on our original robot, it helped keep the ball in the holder properly. we just transferred the code over to this robot and only changed it today :)
for your last question, it really depends on the situation you are in. the intake is great for moving around single triballs or getting them from corners. however, the wings are good for pushing triballs in piles into the goal, which we found happened often in scrims. the wings are also very useful for skills.
please feel free to contact me at ( shivaan. ) on Discord as well!

[@eclairereally622]

What size omni wheels did y’all use? Love the bot!

[@chevy3096]

thank you so much! we use the 4" omni wheels

[@andrewbalson5300]

[@Taran_K]

[@anirvdh]

[@DreadNauts]

Thanks-27301D

[@swomsushi604]

daymn

[@catpaste5771]

how did you guys strip ur gears? awesome robot :)

[@chevy3096]

thank you! we used a dremel and a sanding bit.

[@GGremlin-fr5fy]

Average slapper W

[@olliedaoriginal]

what gears did you use? 48 or 60 tooth?

[@JustGamingHereBoi]

what is the gear you guys use for slip gear?

[@truettweber]

what is your catapult gear ratio

[@user-xr6fg2yq9b]

How many seconds do you need for the 22 triballs

[@walkershirley140]

Hey I was wondering how did you get that black cover for your catapult gear?

[@calamity3324B]

some of the gears are dyed black.

[@8110ARestartobotics]

Wwwwww

[@ayaniqbal9711]

CALAMITY TOO GOOD

[@huhrawz]

normal puncher or pneumatic assisted?

[@chevy3096]

pneumatic release puncher. it still uses rubber bands to shoot forward, but is locked in place by pistons and cannot be retracted once fired

[@Collision13358C]

Bros using ben from revisions hang 👍👍👍

[@sirvector5008]

WNA????

[@chevy3096]
