Porch
Q: Is the porch "the 14" by 14" area on the floor centered in front of each mousehole" (Playing Field) or "within a 12 inch radius of the center of the yellow goal" (Contest rules)?
A: The porch is within a 12" distance measured with a ruler from the goal edges in all directions in front of the goal. The porch is the goal area plus 12" in all directions.
Motors
Q: What is the part number of the provided motors?
A: The specs for the motor are:
- Voltage = 12vdc
- RPM = 120
- Reduction = 50:1
- Stall Torque = 123.20 oz-in (8.8 kg-cm)
- Outside Diameter = 37mm
- Length (motor and gear) = 1.92" (4.87cm)
- Diameter (motor and gear) = 1.45" (3.68 cm)
- Diameter (shaft) = 6mm
- Outside Diameter = 37mm
- Current (at 12v no load) = 90mA
- Stall Current (at 12v locked shaft) = 1.5A
These motors are twice as strong as the ones that were used last year. You can purchase them here.
