Day 53: X-Ray and Autons

X-Ray update

X-Ray has been fully assembled, wired, and can drive. We are very happy with how it looks.

It did have some issues yesterday.

Its intake was very wobbly at first when compared to practice bot. This is an issue because when the intake retracted, the inside roller’s pulley could hit the four-bar arms, pushing the belt off. We never had this issue with practice bot, but it happened immediately with comp. We switched out X-Ray’s chains and sprockets with practice bot’s, which helped a bit.
X-Ray also did not intake ground cones for some reason. We solved this by making the intake rollers run while retracting intake, and making the elevator bob up for a moment while retracting as well. Switching its lower roller with the practice bot’s also helped, for some reason.
