Wedging mayhem? Don't you mean wedging omfg please kill me now it's so boring?
I hope dylon gets the beater working proper for battleshed, that thing had mega potential. It had seized bearings in all its fights and still hit hard!? _________________ ( •_•)

nah it was spinning pretty free, after a good hour of very delicately sandpapering the bushings out and dylon putting some more give on the belt it freed it up plenty.

Glen is right, Scissorhands has evolved into a 'big arena bot'. Does anyone have a spare $15K lying around for an arena? <deafening silence> No? Guess I will just have to dial down the power a bit

yay for my lack of drivingness, really gotta sort that issue out, and yes thanks to andrew for his help in getting the beater going eventually, it wasnt running as smooth as possible seeing how the shaft was spinning when it wasnt meant to be. next version will be exactly the same but itll beable to drive and the beater will spin properly as it wont be rushed the night before the event _________________ Barton Robotics Youtube Channel:
