RC11-Assembly Instructions

The following is a rough guidline for assembly of the robot. It largely contains steps for assembly of major mechanical components. Expansion of these steps could include:
-Drive Module Assembly
-Dribbler Assembly
-Electrical Board Integration and Wiring

Assemble each assembly in the order shown here.

Chipper Arm Assembly

-32 Socket Cap Screws, front solenoid mount (L-block)

1. Attach bearing to arm with pin, using press 2. Place arm onto boot and press pin into both from outside face of arm 3. Press bearing onto other arm 4. Place arms with bearings onto sides of L-Block and press pin into second arm and boot 5. Screw arms and boot together using green or blue Locktite.

Kicker-Chipper Assembly with Bottom Plate and Dribbler

-32 Socket Cap Screws, dribbler assembly, chipper solenoid, 12-

1. Take kicker plunger assembly with kicker boot removed a d insert spring into plunger, with small end of spring facing kicker plunger plate 2. Insert plunger through back of lower hole of the center solenoid mount 3. Place bobbin onto kicker plunger and insert into center solenoid mount 4. Place chipper arm assembly onto front of bobbin and insert plunger through L-Block -32 Socket Cap Screw 6. Place chipper solenoid into center solenoid mount and screw on solenoid nut 7. Place rear solenoid mount onto back of chipper solenoid with wire coming out on right side and fasten rear solenoid mount to center solenoid mount with 12-24 screws-Do not tighten. 8. Place chipper plunger into chipper solenoid 9. Attach dribbler and kicker- 10. Take rubber band on dribbler and wrap around chipper plunger bar while inserting the bar int o the chipper arm slots. 11. Tighten all screws fully into the bottom of the chipper-kicker assembly and dribbler assembly 12. Tighten 12-24 screws that connect center solenoid mount to rear solenoid mount

Wheel module assembly

Wheel Module Integration

1. Screw wheel modules into bottom plate while having motor and encoder wires facing towards center of robot

Electronics Stack Assembly

-32 Socket Cap Screw

1. Attach electronics board and kicker board together with standoffs. And then attach to top plate. 2. Attach top plate to tops of drive motors modules 3. Attach standoffs for shell
