To give teams a head start, we identified five common upgrades on
TileRunner's standard drive system. These upgrade kits cover a wide range of use
cases, from high-speed maneuvering to moving heavy loads with ease and loads of
grip and are used with the TileRunner (am-3437):
- TileRunner Omni (am-3456): 6WD with omniwheels at the corners is a
popular choice among FIRST Tech Challenge teams. Instead of the standard
Stealth Wheels, this variation includes two black 4" stealth wheels
(am-2648_Blk), four 4" aluminum omniwheels (am-2948), and the necessary
hardware.
- TileRunner GTO (am-3734): For increased maneuverability, this version
substitutes NeveRest Orbital 20 gearmotors (am-3637) and black 4" Stealth
Wheels (am-2648_Blk) with higher grip than stock and the proper mounting
plate, PickBox GEO Plate (am-3476), for the Orbital Gearmotors
- TileRunner BullDozer (am-3457): When you want to push, pick this!
NeveRest Classic 60 gearmotors (am-3103) provide maximum torque, while six
of our softest compound blue 4" Stealth Wheels (am-2648_Blue) put that to
the ground for maximum pushing force. Pushing hard will increase wear on
these wheels, so have a spare set handy for competition time.
- TileRunner Mecanum (am-3455): Get set to strafe with four PicoBox Unos
replacing the two PicoBox Duos of the standard TileRunner. You'll receive
four 4" standard-duty mecanum wheels (am-2538) instead of Stealth Wheels, as
well as all the spacers, shafts, and gears to get you up and running.
- TileRunner Hulk (am-3459): The TileRunner Hulk is your go-to for heavy
robots! Six 4" Performance Wheels (am-3434) and a 10' roll of our Green
Grippy Tread (am-2611) replace the Stealth Wheels and provide a very robust
drive system.
