Scampi is a mostly undefeated 3lb vertical spinner. It was originally planned to be a modular robot with horizontal and vertical modules, but after careful reconsideration and deliberation we decided to focus on the vertical component when our robot was half a pound over weight 8 hours before we had to leave for competition. We ended our competition with an overall record of 0-2 but are the current favorite to win it all in the grudge matches.

Weapon Motor Controllers Unknown, ordered a cobra but it didn't work for us

Battery MaxAmps 3s 1050mah


Max Weapon RPM 1200 RPM
Min Spin Up Time 4 seconds

Problems

  • When damaged, the shaft has much more rotational friction, so the weapon struggles to spin up after a hit.
  • Replaced back plate with plastic for weight, battery fell out in every match because the back plate broke or came off.
  • Slight skew to the right when driving forwards
  • None relevant to match, some ESCs exploded before competition. (not our fault)

Good aspects

  • Weapon hit a robot across 10ft arena, was very hype.
  • Wheels coated in latex, helped probably
  • Did not explode in match

Changes/Improvements

  • Switched from a modular design to a vertical spinner because our robot was 3.5 lbs in the 3lb category.
  • Latex wheels
