Revision as of 09:29, 15 December 2023
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).
Bus-i.5 also went by Barbii, the spiritual successor to Barbi, when competing at Robot Battles due to the lack of a Bus.

Design Summary
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.
Problems
- Weapon
- Belt still a little loose, honestly don't know why it was so wrong from the belt calculators something must have been cut out very poorly
- Drive
- Very laggy for some reason, could be ESCs or the garbage gearboxes
Good aspects
It work
Changes/Improvements
