Hey all!
Im going to make my own antweight, and for armour i was thinking 1mm Hardox, is this a good choice?
Ive got plenty of plastic down the garage, but its no good against spinners...
What would be a good choice?
Thanks!

*hears the approaching Hardox Police* Hardox doesnt come in 1mm sheets :P

http://www.robotwars101.org/http://www.robotwars101.org/ will probably be more helpful than here, they sell kits and the antweight rules are on there (metal armour is restricted)

Oh, sorry!
I thought that they did do 1mm hardox, sorry!
I never knew that metal armour was restricted, guess ill have to go with the plastic, thanks!

to be honest i think polycarb will do fine, my robot valliant survived 2 onslaughts from spinners with some 2mm polycarb and all the inerds are still fine

Is it a pusher?
If it is, then i should be ok!
We do have some polycarb down the garage, so i might use that...
