This is cool and all but I feel it’s very inefficient to only pick up one at a time, also you should probably do a lift that would go directly up and down rather than coming backwards, like a double reverse fourbar or something like that.
The only problem with that is that I'm trying to get the robot as light as possible and the chain bar is the lightest. As I've mentioned in other video comments, this is a small prototype compared to the final design in which the lift is only putting the rings on the wall stakes. An intake will be for putting rings on the mobile goals (my teammate is working on that while I'm working on this). I hope this is a good response.
@@8682N oh ok that makes sense, but here’s the cool thing, if you use something like a double reverse four bar a lot of the weight would be near the top of the lift, meaning with a few extra mechanisms you could use the 4 bar to help you hang, but I don’t really know, great robot though keep up the good work :D
@@dheerandoesstuff2793the only thing wrong is we (I think) are running a 4 motor base and want to move pretty quick, so weight should have to be low. I see where ur heads at tho
@@8682N if you are worried about your robot tipping over I don’t think that is a problem, I am also running a four motor base and it doesn’t seem to have any disadvantages regarding unstableness, for example people were building very tall robots in spin up, a lot of which were 4 motor drives, (X drive). And there were not a lot of tip overs, especially when people were even barrier hopping and had no issue. So yes this is just a tip for you guys but if you want to completely be sure that you have a stable robot then that’s cool too.
