What you'll learn

  • Plan VRC Robot design in Fusion 360
  • Effectively Manage Fusion 360 projects for VEX
  • Create a drive train on Fusion 360
  • Create a VEX Fusion 360 Project

Course content

1 section • 9 lectures • 37m total length

  • Introduction0:18
  • Downloading the VEX Library0:08
  • Setting Up VEX CAD Addin2:02

    Learn to set up the VEX CAD addin in Fusion 360, enabling quick interaction with community parts, resizing metal components, and adding inserts for gears using the parts library download.

  • How to Navigate Fusion 3606:04

    Navigate Fusion 360 for VEX robotics by using the design workspace, parts library, and VEX CAD library to import, assemble, measure distances, and capture component positions in inches.

  • How is VEX CAD different?3:23

    Explore how VEX CAD in Fusion 360 differs by favoring rigid groups over joints, reducing load times, and using move and copy to position parts before grouping.

  • Project Management2:22

    Organize your project in ECS by dividing it into subsystems and folders, reuse components with spacing files to save time, and plan the drivetrain using Fusion360.

  • Creating a Drive Layout6:08

    Design a drive layout in Fusion 360 for VEX Robotics, assembling a drive base with a two-by C-channel, 84-tooth gears, and four-inch omni wheels.

  • Spacing Drivetrain11:33

    Learn to space a Fusion 360 drivetrain by modeling gears, wheels, spacers, and shaft hardware in a two-bar drive base, using half-inch increments and rigid groups.

  • Putting drive base together5:55

    Build a complete drive base in Fusion 360 by assembling wheel spacing and gear spacing files, aligning four wheels on 24-hole bars, and mounting motors.

Requirements

  • Need some experience in VEX Robotics. Familiarity with VEX parts is recommended.

Description

Welcome to this Fusion 360 course with VEX robotics! As a former VRC competitor, I know how much time it may take to jump straight into building without having a proper plan as to how to build your robot. Hence, this course is intended to teach you the basics on how to create a VEX robot in Fusion 360 to create detailed designs to save build time during meetings and costs during the season.


This course will go over how to setup the VEX CAD library and add-in, navigate Fusion 360, effectively manage your VEX projects, and creating a drive base.
