What is it with you and taking a massive piece of metal and machining away 95% of it?

What material is that? How are you attaching the spinning element to the rest of Gimp?

I need to get a blade sorted for Spinza.

could do with a few more lipos

Re: UK Kilobots - 1.362kg (3 lbs) Combat Robots

Still got room for more lipos lol. I was suprised it drives really well. Dave wired it up today. Just looking for a different brushless setup at the moment. Somthing with a lower profile motor than it has, and less KV. Would love to see a few more people building them and posting pics.

Re: UK Kilobots - 1.362kg (3 lbs) Combat Robots

I have the design of mine but I used the motors for my ant arena effects, need to get some more.

I'm also not sure if I can get my design in the weight:

1mm Ti base plate
1mm Carbon fibre top
1.2mm Ti front
10mm HDPE bulkheads (held in with Ali angle)
1 x 1300mAh 11.1v battery
1 x sabretooth 5A
2x MFA 100:1 motors
1 x 12T gear and 1 x 24T gear (possibly, may be less)

And the clincher
1 x speedo 900 replica for my weapon

I can see the S900 replica screwing you for weight there Dave.
