I’m an 8th grader in VEX, and it’s my first year. Though my team I think is going to do well at our next competition due to my middle school being a good place to start. My older brother is a senior, so he started with Tower Takeover, so it’s really cool to see how bots from 3-4 years ago were built.
I would recommend redesigning the actual intakes, how their mounted is good. It’s clear that once it has so many cubes they start to lose traction. I don’t think you need different sized sprockets of it’s mounted on a hinge. Changing the sprockets and maybe testing different flaps as well as making them a bit faster would improve the robot tremendously. Otherwise it looks pretty good!
maybe try getting 200 rpm motors and faster intakes? With faster intakes your bot would be really fast at stacking. also maybe increase speed of your tilter, and do a linear function for the code. it works really well for us. also a 3rd stage w/ longer linear slide you could get at least 11 cubes.
They didn't end up being super useful for a traybot. We use the reversing function of the rollers a lot to nudge cubes when stacking, so we would lose that function with the ratchets.
It seems like some simple coding could really make this bot shine. Your lift seems extremely slow for a 5:1 torque. Same with the tilter and intakes. I think your motors aren’t on 100% speed. I know worlds is canceled and everything, but still😂
It’s pretty good. If your going to worlds though I’m not sure this is going to be competitive enough
This didnt age well
Sean MacDonald ikr 😅
It sucks that worlds is now canceled
@@calvinthrasher4131 Yes , it sucks, after all the time put into the preparation...
Yah I was so ready to make more videos for my channel and stuff because this is my last year for middle school robotics.

I think faster intakes would make this bot really good
Finally! I've been waiting for you to upload! Your robot is really cool, and 9 rebuilds? Holy heck...

Cool Robot! Can you also make a tutorial about intakes and locking mechanism please?
Could you make a video on how to make effective bases?
Maybe you should think about adding a third fold?
That robot’s base is not 5:3.....
Nice robot! Do you have any ideas for changing the cube capacity?
Building is fun as long as you got thick bills
How many can it stack
Are you going to state/worlds
Ty Youlden
Probably not
But seriously though, NICE JOB

What happened to the custom rachets you designed?

This video aged well
Hey! I have seen your team play in ND states.
Good content, keep it up.
What grade are you in and have you considered competing in ftc?
whats is its specs?
Nice
WORLDS IS CANCELLED MAN

How does it deploy at that hinge? Not the arms but the second half of the tray?
Teach me to build
idk what these guys in the comments are about XD this bot literally sucks
worlds is cancelled😔
And then worlds got cancelled
Too bad worlds was cancelled
Worlds is cancelled.
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
finally a REAL robot
