ROFLchopter:
Drive motors, axle, wheels - free (lying around for years)
Frame - free (leftover speed frame from bench making)
Armour - free (leftover rack case parts)
Saw motor - free (scrap car cooling fan)
Saw motor mounting - free (old outdoor security camera bracket)
Batteries - free (sample NiMh packs I was using at work)
Tyres x 2 - $2.80 (plumbing o-rings)
Microswitches x 6 - ~$18 (Jaycar)
Bolts - ~$5
Radio gear - $30 (Hitec 2 Channel on special)
All other little bits and pieces were just junk lying around.
So the total is about $56, 3 evenings to build it, and a bit of time at work on the last friday to throw together the switching controller. _________________
