Awesome run! I especially like your solution for the sorting center mission. If you guys are going to any tournament or anything like that sometime this fall/winter good luck!
Wow this is one of the most awesome videos I have seen. But if I may ask, how do u make ur robot move so smoothly without hitting any obstacles? I have a rookie team here in Nigeria and we have been working tirelessly on some of these missions. I'll be glad if u put me through.
Thank you very much! That really means a lot. Congrats on starting a rookie team, though! That is a big step, and it does take a lot of time and thinking, so I'm glad you see you and your team are working hard. ruclips.net/video/Sext38SkPt0/видео.html here is a video that we made that goes over the major design choices of our robot and why we made those choices. It should be able to answer your question. You can also email me at justhelpingyouout333@gmail.com and I would be happy to discuss more with you.
Impressive to all that with a single attachment . Love the fork lift action. I noticed the package was already in place on 'package drop' Was that a mistake on the set up ?
Thank you! We really appreciate it! And yes, you are right, that was a mistake on the setup. Good catch, though. We never even noticed that. Thankfully that doesn't really change this video too much since it doesn't affect any of the missions we completed, and the points for that mission are not included in the 520 points we earned with the rest of the missions. Thank you for pointing that out; we will need to be more careful next time!
Hello, Just Helping You Out. Being able to get a high score point with a few attachments is very impressive. Your robot's performance is very efficient and quick at executing different missions. We, the SDDT, really enjoyed watching your robot conserve every movement and effectively use every movement to your advantage. Again, excellent job. - The Spicy Dog Donut Team (SDDT)
Hello SDDT, thank you for your kind words, and I am glad that you enjoy watching our robot. We feel as though there are a lot of teams out there who feel that they need a lot of very elaborate attachments in order to do well. This can be very discouraging. So, each year we try to focus on doing as many missions as possible with as few attachments as possible. This way, we can show teams that having one well thought out attachment can be just as powerful as 5 attachments that are all specific to a couple missions. This will also save a lot of time since you don't have to constantly change attachments. I wish your team good luck this year!
@@JHYO333 Yes, we agree with your statement of the equivalent effectiveness of one attachment. Thank you, Just Helping Out, we wish you the same luck to you and your team as well. - The Spicy Dog Donut Team (SDDT)
Your robot game was so amazing, fast, and really smooth. Great Job!!! I was wondering what tires you guys were using for your missions? Thanks, The Dragon Coders Team
Very impressive to complete missions with only one attachment !!! We are new to league n struggling. Is it possible to share building instruction for the attachment or name of mechanism... again great video. Thanks for posting to inspire us.
Thank you! We love inspiring people, so that means a lot. Struggling is totally normal, especially as a rookie team. Just keep your head up and keep working hard. I have seen several teams (rookie or not) struggle, work hard, learn a ton, and end up doing very well throughout the season. As for the mechanism, I'm not totally sure if there is a specific name for it. ruclips.net/video/4ORDaXbFV9s/видео.html this is a video we made during the City Shaper season. The attachment we used was functionally similar, and the video explains how it was built and a bit of how it works. From this, you may be able to build something similar that works for your robot this season. If you need more information, we can provide other videos. Hope this helps!

Awesome, going to show my rookie team and hope it inspires them to try and use RUclips as a resource to help them learn more. In general what types of sensors are you using and how are you using them? I can't imagine that robot could be that accurate without using sensors in some way.
I hope it inspires them as well! The robot has 2 line sensors and a touch sensor, but the touch sensor is not used, and the line sensors are hardly used at all. When we designed this robot, we had two major goals. The first was to try and reach a high score while only using 1 arm as much as possible. The other was not using many sensors. We wanted to do this because we feel as though many teams think that you need a bunch of sensors and elaborate attachments in order to do well. However, you can achieve a high score with a well thought out attachment and careful designing/programming. The robot construction was chosen to be low and stable with wide small wheels. This helps with accuracy. The large ball in the back is used as a rear wheel, and if placed far enough back, it can keep the robot pretty stable. Other things that are important are symmetrical design, flat front and back, and an arm that can rotate through 180 degrees. You'll notice that the flat front and back are used to square the robot against the wall and field elements. This way, if the robot happens to get the slightest bit off, it is corrected instead of compounded. The line sensor is used to find the first black line in front of the sorting bays for reference. It is used again to line follow in the last mission, but that was only to show it being used. We could have programmed that mission without it. So, most of this run is done without sensors! Another thing to be careful about is speed and turning. Most turns are pivot turns. The robot pivots around the center of the wheel base my moving both wheels in opposite directions. Otherwise, if you only move one wheel, the other one is sliding rubber which introduces uncertainty. In terms of speed, the wheels can slip if you try to move fast. So, we recommend programming everything slow first, and then gradually increasing the speed to a point before the wheels start to slip. The lift arm was designed to go as low as the containers in the sorting bay and as high as the arm on the tail of the cargo plane. Design tradeoffs in the beginning do not allow it to place containers on the mat or pick them up. It's important to do this strategic planning and build your robot accordingly. Then, you want to work with it and innovate rather than try to build a whole new robot just to end up in the same spot. Long answer, but I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any more questions.

very impressive!!! doing all of that with a single arm and a small attachment. well done. You can get more points with a simple change to the program/code. check all the scoring options for M15 and M16
Thank you! I also appreciate you pointing out opportunities for additional points. While you are correct, there are some limitations that make the additional points (I'm assuming you are referring to dropping the blue container in the blue circle) more difficult than it appears. Our arm is actually not designed to place containers on the mat, so getting it off the arm and into the circle is not as easy for us as it may seem. Our goal was to try and build a robot that could achieve a high score using only a single arm, so one of our initial decisions was to not focus so much on being able to place a container on the mat. However, we thank you for the comment and will look into ways that we can adjust our design and programming to make this work.

My robotics team real likes this thx
You're welcome! I'm glad you like it!
Greetings, can you send me the construction and programming plans of the robot?
Hi, we don't have build instructions on the robot, but we are planning on making a video that goes over the major design choices on the robot. Also, if you contact justhelpingyouout333@gmail.com, we can discuss some design and programming.
do you have the studio file ??
Unfortunately, we never made one, sorry.

haha how so?
