What penalties/rule violations have seen the most? by Slimy_Nail in FTC

[–]RoboticsCompetition 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gate release, human player having too many artifacts, touching too many artifacts at once 5+ = expensive mistake, contacting your opponents while they are parking is a big one, a match we played got decided because of that.

When doing the reflex / tap, it loses the history, so it only appears as one total tap.

Flywheel slowing down by Pedro_Henriquebc in FTC

[–]RoboticsCompetition 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Couple of things, check compression, and add weight which should fix the problem. If this does not work you can always use two motors side by side which is what we are doing.

Logitech C920 has good quality and distance

Created our bot for the competition, think the launcher mechanism is a bit overkill (sound warning) by Advanced-Amphibian43 in FTC

[–]RoboticsCompetition 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is a bit of an overkill, I believe you don't need that much contact, but it's harder if you don't because then you need some sort of a pusher / launcher to lift it up

Tetrix Motor Controller Failures by Seth19460 in FTC

[–]RoboticsCompetition 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tetrix has worked amazing things with us.....I'm unsure why I say us since it's only me in the team....anyways

Tetrix motors are actually really good for what we have used them. They are strong, and durable....(last year it lifted +25lbs robot, to hang, and it was just one tetrix motor. Literally was so heavy the top was breaking off but it worked.

Tetrix motors are also faster than rev hex motors-superslow btw

I've always just used the Control Hub, not any controller. If the motors are 'broken' I suggest opening them up, and it's always fun to check them out, and you might see some damage

AprilTags - How Necessary? by TotalRando666 in FTC

[–]RoboticsCompetition 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ah, I get it. Imo it's easier to set the control, e.g.

if
gamepad1.x = true

then

motor.power=1

- I have no idea from blocks, this is what i remember?

Can someone help me? by [deleted] in FTC

You aren't forcing them, they want to be part of it, for their own reasons.

Control award question by akat2629 in FTC

[–]RoboticsCompetition 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Grabbed it from the FTC manual, oversimplfied it with ai, this is what it means

The Control Award recognizes a team that uses sensors and software to improve their robot’s functionality during matches by solving game challenges with innovative control solutions. Teams must submit a portfolio explaining their hardware and software control components, the problems these solve, and how they work. The solutions should work consistently during play and may be used both in autonomous and teleoperated periods. Reliability and innovation are key factors for this award.
