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

I'm impressed. Maybe I should try and get that speed 900 in the weight after all :P

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

how much does the speed 900 weigh on its own

But you see how powerful inertia is with 2 of em

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

It's a speed 900 replica which I bought in error, so I had planned to make use of it, rather than spend more money on a new Speed 600.

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

what do i know

[davet123]

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

It prob be possible to use the speed 900 Dave just would have to be very selective on rest of parts used . Some of the smaller lighter parts needed to go with speed 900 ie smaller drive motors speed controllers may cost more than just buying a speed 600 would be good to see a speed 900 axe bw though

Ye it will be nice to see a good axe robot, be nice to see a few good lifters / flippers too. This is a good opportunity to build somthing very unique for little cost.

Quick update on the arena, the polycarb (10mm) walls are being cut to size ready to slot in and also the 5mm polycarb roof as been sponsored, so we are looking a few weeks and will be ready to take to an event for the first battles!
