Over under robot explanation

Rip Susan may 2023-June 2023
Susan 2.0 should be done in a couple of weeks.
I will make a reveal video later in the year when regional competitions start happening. Don’t wanna give too many leaks🤫🤫🤫

Nice robot! For your catapult, assume you use a slip gear and gear reduction to have enough power to bring it down, yet how do you hold it down?

[@mtb_films_6227]

We would put in a ratchet but there is no need to hold it down as it is just used for match loads

[@LaxBoi54]

what will you be doing for endgame or are you not going for an endgame love your robot i like the catapult idea we are doing something like that on are robot to but it as our shooter good luck this season have fun

[@robotoholicsrobotics]

Yeah we’ll have an endgame we’re in the process of making one. We had a low hang on this bot but our next one will have high hang

[@piraterobotics]

btw we're Las Vegas area too, out in Moapa Valley. Hope to see u in comps this season!

[@robotoholicsrobotics]

Nice, we’ll definitely see you guys out there

[@piraterobotics]

@@robotoholicsrobotics looking forward to it!

[@piraterobotics]

❤‍🔥Nice, can that single motor winch actually lift the robot? Cool bot and thanks for the vid.

[@robotoholicsrobotics]

Yes it does lift it. It’s a little slow but it can lift it a foot in 3.5 seconds or for

At 2:28, you said that the drivetrain was 600 rpm 6 motor drive, but the gearing looks like its getting geared down(small to big gear)? Are the wheels spinning at 600 rpm, or are you using 600 rpm motors? Also quick question, do you think the green or blue motors are better for drivetrains?

[@robotoholicsrobotics]

The actual wheels are 360 rpm, the motors are 600. I think for this season 6 motor drive with all blue motors is best

[@olliedaoriginal]

@@robotoholicsrobotics Won't the drive burn out a lot faster though?

[@fluffydeath2365]

@@olliedaoriginalwith 6 motors the drivetrain is not going to burn out in a single match unless your friction is REALLY bad

[@olliedaoriginal]

@@fluffydeath2365 so then would u use like screw joints or something to get freespin? Because for Spin Up I did 600 rpm down to around 300-400 rpm and after maybe 10 mins they would burn out. How would you reduce friction on the drivetrain?

[@fluffydeath2365]

@@olliedaoriginal you do not need to use screw joints, but it also depends on the weight of your robot. If you are driving an absolute chonker of a robot it may burnout. the easiest way to achieve low friction is to test each wheel as you assemble it so you can figure out any that might be problematic. To tell if its weight or friction, tilt the robot on its side and check the wattage the motors are drawing. IIRC 5w is about what they should need, and higher and your friction might be the issue

[@luisserranolaguna1610]

u can use 9 motors?

[@robotoholicsrobotics]

Yes with the 5.5s

[@realminion1654]

are the sleds legal?

[@robotoholicsrobotics]

Yes

Yo how much for the robot 😂.

Like fr how much
