I was just seting up the wheapon motor but Aaron came over prety late and we had to do some repairs to his car so i dint get to wire in the relay all the spinning was done by me spinning it by hand .. i din't realise how long it went on that super crap 2.3 sla and i was playing around with it on the same batery before aaron came over . Pity the rocks kept geting in the tire groves in the dirt and throwing the belts .This is certainly a fun bot to drive it will be even beter when i get an aerial on it .

I am planing on brining some old VCR’s to smash up as fillers, and then arena sweeper can clean up.
Looks like we have a volunteer to do the smashing.

Now, this is why, I didn't vote in favor for the topic of tracked robots having a weight bonus!
I thought that the argument went along the lines that only robots with segmented tracks would get a bonus.

You guys have been busy, looks good Have you had a weapon test yet, and does it like to flip over or does it keep low?

With about 80% of the weight at lower then 60mm from the floor, flipping itself during impacts will be very very unlikely In the testing we did with that rotor around 3 years ago, it was extremely stable while hitting 4" x 4" blocks of wood, barely even moving on impact. _________________ https://www.halfdonethings.com/
