after fixing the arial (yay duct tape) I fought cobra (thanx to glen for being a great spotsman and lending his triton- omnis are slow as!) well there was a lot of wegeing and shoving and we both ended up stuck in a corner.
Winner:Cobra by Judges Decision
Vs Cyborg
Another new bot, congrats to Brad Andrew and Dylon for a very well made robot. this was a pushymatch again untill Cyborg lost a wheel (no locite or glue) Cyborg kept going and it went to the judges
Winner: DeathWish by Judges Decision
Vs Sorry (again)
I made it to the semis! this match really proved the durability of DeathWish. it lasted the full 5mins despite a side pannel bent into a ^ shape.
Winner: Sorry by Judges Desision.

The speed will be around 378rpm, that is based on the 200/300W scooter motor doing 2750 rpm at 24V. The torque should be around 51kg/cm for the 200W or 77kg/cm for the 300W.

Shytloads of progress today! (no anguz, i'm not bullshiting) the baseplate is cut out and all but 12 mounting holes are drilled (holes for the scoter motor and the drives) there is only gonna be two drives, and it IS a barspinner atm, but very easy to change to a hammerbot.
EDIT: many thanks to my next door neighbour David, who is a builder. Couldn't have got so much done without your help (anguz stop laughing) _________________ Oh god, that old signature was terrible...

XD the blade doesn't make any sense, you've lightened it's tips... You want max Mass at the tips for higher KE. Just use a straight bar, simpler and would be stronger (plus you could have loads of spares). _________________ ( •_•)
