Pushback Small Bot

2025

I designed this small bot in CAD and then built the physical version for the Push Back season. The drivetrain is 450 RPM with a center traction wheel so the robot does not get pushed around much. It had a C shaped intake with a moveable hood that could score the middle goal and the high goal. I scrapped this robot before the first competition because there were too many issues with indexing and keeping balls in the system. The system was too wide and the balls always got jammed.
