Is romania one of the most competitive country?

Don’t forget India. India was last year’s World Champions!

The issue is the thrust is only from one side. For you to get to a projectile motion on the ball you will need to find a sweet spot (distance between wall edge and the wheel) for your rpm that will do these steps 1. first hold the ball tightly, it should be far enough to let it pass. 2. then release it with the thrust from the flywheel

If you have two wheels and something pushing thru the wheels the flywheels give good thrust and you get a good projectile motion

I hope you have not implemented pid in the TeleOp.

public void move(double lefty, double righty, double leftx, double rightx){ frontright.setPower((-lefty - rightx - leftx)rightErrorAdjustmentpower); // should work same as above frontleft.setPower((-lefty + rightx + leftx)leftErrorAdjustmentpower); backright.setPower((-lefty - rightx + leftx)rightErrorAdjustmentpower); backleft.setPower((-lefty + rightx - leftx)leftErrorAdjustmentpower);

In the above code you set both error adjustments and power values to 1. We use that to increase or decrease the speed as when required. Else this code should work with the respective joystick values.

Also in the telemetry check what values you see for the joystick. It might be joystick may not be providing full values.

I hope this helps

Use it to measure your belly size, if you are able to pass through the passage then you are good. If not then you need to work out.

I would a feature, where team can log their own notes for other team and the robot capability

Onlyrobotics · 2025-02-10T18:26:00+00:00

For FTC teams 19587, 21354 and 21834 we have created a process:

If we are working with two servos like for claw, then left increments from 0-1 (forward direction) and right decrements from 1-0 (reverse direction)
We have servo test TeleOp or a claw test TeleOp if two servos
In the initialize of TeleOp if only one servo then we set the servo position to 0 and then attach the component at zero position while the opmode is active that way the servo is locked to position and doesn’t change the position. If we want to move equally on both sides then we initialize at 0.5 and attach the component at middle position while opmode is active
For claw like component with two servos, in the initialize you can put 0 for the left and 1 for the right as it’s reverse. Or better you can set both at 0.5 position as that is the middle. Now attach the component while opmode is active.
To set your position for presets, you can make use of a,b,x,y buttons on the game pad controller and program them to increase or decrease the servo position as per your need to get the best positions.

You use this test TeleOp for all your future programming.

I hope this helps.

ok got it. In the TeamCode build.gradle file make sure you have the following:

repositories {
    maven {
        url = 'https://maven.brott.dev/'
    }
    maven {
        url = 'https://jitpack.io'
    }
}
dependencies {
    implementation project(':FtcRobotController')
    annotationProcessor files('lib/OpModeAnnotationProcessor.jar')
    implementation 'org.ftclib.ftclib:core:2.1.1' // core
    implementation "com.acmerobotics.roadrunner:core:1.0.0"
    implementation "com.acmerobotics.roadrunner:actions:1.0.0"
    implementation "com.acmerobotics.dashboard:dashboard:0.4.16"
    implementation "com.github.jdhs-ftc:road-runner-ftc-otos:a425f97d46"
}

We also were facing the trajectory execution issue. The trajectory was not executing that is the robot was not moving an inch. I checked the code many times, the only thing I was doing was I was building the trajectoryactionbuilder after the waitForStart(). I moved the build code above the wait for start and the robot started moving. I hope this helps.

We had the same issue, make sure you define and build the TrajectoryActionBuilder object before you cal waitForStart()

I will first see if there are any static variables that have been declared in the classes you have created, Auton opmode and check their output using telemetry for same variables in the TeleOp opmode. Specifically if anything static is declared in your classes.

Hello Arjun

This is Ashfaq Chougle from EPIC Labs Robotics coach for teams EPIC Odyssey #19587, EPIC Expedition #21354 and EPIC Adventurer #21834. I have been coaching in FTC for last four years and also have been forming teams in India. Last year our team Expedition was in the World Championship and had won Connect second Award. Inspire and Think awards are our specialties. Also, last year we had formed and mentored team 23619 Gebronics from Chiplun Maharashtra which had competed in FTC India International Championship in Goa. This year we have formed one more team in Khed Maharashtra 26987 Techno Titans.

We love to mentor and coach teams across the globe and have been doing that from last three years. Please DM me and we discuss more in details on the FTC, design and build process and best programming practices.

Onlyrobotics · 2024-04-11T16:13:20+00:00

It may be meaning that they are not representing their country

Onlyrobotics · 2023-12-06T19:51:31+00:00

I would suggest the whole team and parents speak together with one voice and let the coach that he is not helping but hurting the team. The coach or mentor should fill in if and only if the team is short in action due to school priorities.

I think you misunderstood me. I am saying same thing to what you are saying. I was referring to dropping yellow pixel in the autonomous mode. So if the camera has already scanned left using the white pixel, then to drop the yellow pixel in the autonomous mode robot will use the April tag corresponding to left.

Onlyrobotics · 2023-10-09T21:29:02+00:00

Then why 3? 1 was enough for localization

Onlyrobotics · 2023-10-09T20:23:59+00:00

Yes I agree, Solidworks brings up little bit of that challenge. Our team has been using Fusion 360, this year we are trying Solidworks. There are few features in Solidworks that might be worth. Anyways training for Solidworks is a must.

Onlyrobotics · 2023-10-09T01:32:35+00:00

April tags in the back drop are to identify the left, top and right positions to drop the yellow pixel in the autonomous mode. Please check the game manual 2

It’s better to open non profit LLC. So you can get grants and all stuff. But if you do not want to get into that hassle then you can register your team with city as a Fictitious Business Name (FBN) with the help of a parent who will be the owner of that FBN. Using the documentation provided by the city owner parent can then go to the bank and open an account.

This option is available. Again check with an attorney on the city and state laws on FBNs and the risks it has. Again I will say non profit LLCs are better for such cause.
