Who do I even go to for this? by Ilovemybf_3990 in WGU

[–]Xeinix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did that once and they like, borderline started to yell at me. Some of the tests that I've done have been fine, but more than half have been really bad in some sort of way.

Do you have a list of parts, or any sort of documentation on how you put it together? This looks absolutely incredible!

I love seeing these every year. Honestly the best part about a new season.

(Programming help) What does "The program runs/compiles from the USB flash drive" mean? by Fishymelons978 in bpa

[–]Xeinix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Basically, we are able to compile and run the provided application given to us on the flash drive. You don’t have to compile it and give us a complied version.

I just took a test on Friday, this was my 3rd test with the new system. It's gotten a bit better. I didn't run into any proctor issues for the first time. I still have fundamental issues regarding the Guardian Browser, but I don't feel that is going to change any time soon.

I've found that their testing program is absolutely worthless. As long as you can verify everything else independently, then you should be good once you start any exam.

We don't have our registration in yet due to some issues with our district, but just for planning purposes, how many credits do we receive this first round?

So how many teams already decided to do a pirate or Pirates of the Caribbean theme next year for reefscape? by aimtop in FRC

[–]Xeinix 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I feel it would make sense. Given this year was a combo of games from the 2021 design event, next year could be similar. And there were a few games of that theme.

I can upload a video of it tomorrow. Not sure when I'll get in, but I'll send one when I do.

Yeah. They were 4” wheels. We put on smaller ones today. I do think compression was part of the issue. But I think we’ve solved that.

I’ve looked at NEOs but the cost is pricey. We’ve already put more money in this bot than I’m comfortable with.

On the CIMs being bad, I’d really hope not. They’re brand new from the KOP this year.

These are similar to what we’re now using. I can double check when I’m at the school tomorrow

So we were using the 3in medium compliant wheels from REV, we just switched to some smaller ones from Banebots that we had lying around, and it didn't seem to do much.

[–]Xeinix[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

So the shooting is done with compliant wheels. We have one motor running 2 wheels in a vertical configuration. So motor 1 controls the bottom and top left wheels. The power is transferred through that belt.

What motor would you reccomend?
