Robotics Class Studies Mechanical Advantage and Designs, Builds, and Races Prototypes


By Dan Harbold

Kingsley High School Robotics Teacher



The Robotics classes just completed a unit studying mechanical advantage and how it can be used to increase speed.


After almost two months of designing, building, and testing designs, we had our final time trials last week.


The best times in each class were just under 4 seconds to go 50 feet. The winner from each class raced head to head in the gym on Monday, April 17, and Braden Leach and Grayson Oakley took 1st place! James Pearson and Chase Bott took 2nd while Jon Pearson and Noah Scribner took 3rd.


Check out these videos of the exciting event.
