A joke robot made by a few of the 2022-2023 3lb mentors. There hadn't been a drum spinner in the 3lb program for the past 2 years and we thought it would be really funny to have a literal bus as a weapon so here we are. Not counting the CNC work for the bus the rest of the robot was completed within 3-4 days (albeit spread out across several months).

After donating the only functional bus to Todd as a treat, the weapon was replaced with a bootleg Fingertech beater bar milled out in like a hour and a half and a timing pulley was added to replace the PLA round belt pulley we never actually got to try. That's pretty much it but not having the bus is a drastic enough change that I felt like it warranted a different version name.

Design Summary

Busi is a box shaped drum spinner where the chassis is made of strips of HDPE fastened together using interior nut strips.

Problems

  • Weapon
    • It didn't work because of a single broken motor phase so we didn't know the motor was broken until we actually tested it under load
  • Chassis
    • Don't tap HDPE, who knew?
  • Drive
    • Pinions fell off because they weren't soldered very well

Good aspects

  • Weapon
    • Bus
  • Chassis
    • It was pretty durable tho

Changes/Improvements

Maybe like use functional parts

Gallery

  • (whatever images and videos you have)
