1/8 - Bruh, do you even lift?!

We met after school today at Carnegie Vanguard High School! Today's focus was the lift, which must be designed to lift heavy totes and containers approximately 60 inches. We ran into a couple big problems, especially with torsion on the REV rails.

Prototyping + Electrical: Lift work! Our prototype robot now has four REV rails attached,

CAD: Further refining all CAD designs, especially the lift. I stumbled across them making a hard decision between different motors, each with different torques, speeds, and weights. This is extremely important to optimize for the purposes of our robot- the more torque and speed the better, but with that comes a lot more weight.


DO YOU EVEN LIFT? WE [almost] DO!
