Post a comment if you have a question about the lift.

Very good!. Thanks for taking the time to make and post this video. I enjoyed meeting you at worlds and seeing your bot in action. I was disappointed that you did not make the round robin. Your round of 16 may have been the highest total score of the tournament and decided by only 2 points. You all had an excellent year. You are exhibit 1 for why we should have best of 3.

You know it was a good design when I'm sitting here 6 years later about to use this in a vex hame

Really helped in understanding it and thank you for showing the front of the robot. Instead of just one chain there are two for each gear and are wrapped around as well as screwed in with two pillow bearings at each side. Allowing it to translate upwards

great work! love seeing other robots build quality wish you best of luck in life!

So much respect. Such a high quality build

I'm actually working on making a size reduction on this lift, to make it fit on one side of the robot, with a catapult on the other side. Once finished, I think I'll have a full power robot, and I plan on taking videos and showing as i go.

Hey guys, My team and I saw your guys lift it is actually great. Its was so cool that for the next game we decided to begin building one. so far we have a simple concept. But we plan on making it more complex over time obviously. So its sad that you guys are leaving but I am just saying you've inspired so many people my guy its appreciated.

What's the diameter on those spacers that you laser cut? I don't have a way of laser cutting so im trying to find somewhere that sells them in that size. Love the design of this lift.

Hi! Was researching for rover ruckus ideas to latch on the lander and to also get off of it. This is the only "linear slide" that is mecanically capable of pulling the robot up, but also getting it down in autonomous, right?

How did you connect the second stage to the first stage to make the chain in the second stage spin to raise the third stage?

That’s a really good idea, and I might use it

Hey, im building a robot for one of my classes and we were inspired by your video. We have started to build a basic cascade lift although we have come across as problem, the way our sliding mech works is not very efficient and sometimes gets stuck. we basically need a new way of getting the stages to slide and im wondering if your able to help us. Thanks!

is there a build guide anywhere for at least the way the chain is being used?

hello!! which material were the sprockets made?? nice project!!

Hey, guys. Thanks for making a great video for the cascade lift. I just had one question regarding the laser cut spacers required for building the cascade lift. In the video, you guys said that you can buy the spacers. I would just like to know where we can buy the spacers as my team is trying to build the cascade lift for the new game; Vex Turning Point. Also, i just saw a comment that you can buy the spacers on McMaster. I would like to know the part number of the spacers that we can buy from McMaster. Thanks.

Do you only latex tube the first 2 stages? Cause I don't see the tubing on the higher stages

How did you attach the spacers/baring blocks onto the chain?

this is probably very useful for the new vex iq rise above challenge

Hi- where on the vex forum can we find photographs of this lift?

would it help if we put rubber bands at the top of stage one connected to the bottom of stage 2 instead of the latex? We are definitely using this for turning point by the way

Hey! I'm new to VEX EDR and Turning Point will be my first season☺️. We were thinking about building a cascade lift from the very start but we have no idea how to build it😶😅. If possible, do you have any CAD models of the lift? It would be extremely helpful for us and we would really appreciate it. Thank you!☺️👍

I am honestly terrified of this thing

do you guys have pictures of the stages, spacing, and the lift in the highest and lowest position

Is there a way you could maybe put the link on here for the spacers on the McMaster website.

Would this work for elevation for high stakes?

How much chain did you use?

Hi could you guys do a build tutorial for this, I wanted to use this lift for turning point, but can't figure out how.

Can you point to the rule that says it is legal to buy the thinner spacers? I'm having trouble finding it.

Dumb question, but how'd you manage to connect the bearings to the chains with normal screws?

Do you think if you cut it in half vertically it would still be viable with 2 motors (1 top 1 bottom?) or is having 2 motors on each side and and top and bottom essential.

U GUYS R MY FAVORITE TEAM (besides ours, 7830A)

Hi im doing a very similar design for this years game, i was wondering where can i legally buy those very thin spacers?

nice

Have you guys tried making with 2 motors?

Did you guys use torque or high speed motors?

Hey, I am planning on making a lift like this for Turning Point. How did you make your lift go so fast?

Hi this is team 2602G, we were thinking of using a cascade lift in this years game, however, when prototyping your design, we struggled with making the second stage chains turn in order to lift third stage. I noticed you had some sort of connection between the second and first stage as well as second and third that allowed third to go up, however we can’t see what it is. Can someone please explain 😭😭😭😭

Isn't grease illegal?

I thought grease wasn't allowed

And how many cones is that?

will you guys be competing in Vex U?

lmao when i first saw the color scheme i thought it was a ungenant video

My team built this for tower takeover, it’s really good and it’s the fastest robot at towers and we have a claw that can currently hold 3 and soon 6 cubes. Check us out on vex via (8756M) 3rd competition was when it was done.

Bruh our lift won’t go up
