Help sponsor our journey to the FIRST World Championship in Texas this April!
Our first robot iteration of the season was Cypher, which was the first year we ran a Coaxial Swerve drivetrain for competitions. It featured a pivoting intake with compliant and vectored wheels, a turret with 270° of rotation, and an adjustable launcher. We also had a ramp to transfer the balls from the intake to the ramp, and a Limelight camera for relocalization.
Like last year, we made a fully aluminum chassis (now with Swerve), and thanks to Fabworks, we were still able to be lightweight (~25 lbs) and compact form factor (14" x 14.5") on the field! Make sure to use code FTC23511 on checkout for 5% off at Fabworks.

Our second iteration of our robot featured upgraded subsystems, and a redone launcher, turret, and intake. We switched from a pivoting intake to a fixed intake for increased reliability, as well as adding counterrollers on our launcher to help reduce backspin. On our turret, we switched to two Axon MINI+ servos to increase speed, and improved efficiency of it to allow for up to 300° of rotation!
