Folding Titanium

Cough*storm 2*cough
Looks really solid tho

Seriously? So if I had 4WD would you complain it was a Tornado copy? You try and come up with making an effective rambot that doesn't look like either machine that has 6 or 4WD.

Aside from that, storm 2 is slightly longer than it is wide in my memory.

Most designs have been done before in varying degrees of succes.
Coming up with something completely new or different is quite difficult and often not the best way to go about it.

Sorry, but I thought that would be a compliment
Only trying to be nice

What motors are you using btw

Satanix and BonX say: Who needs 4 or 6 wheels?

Storm 2 would be more effective as a rambot if it had spikes on the top to stop it's opponent going over the top and puttin all the energy into it's opponent (well, not all, but the theory's still good).

I am using the same 1000rpm gearbox/motor combos from ebay as everyone else. I am not sure of a single machine besides Gonzales that doesn't. The 6WD will give it the advantage there as everyone uses the same motors.

Flatulence.

Although I will be upgrading it to those whenever I get time.

chop suey will run 800rpm motors

Inversion (Harry DT's beetle uses MFA motors), Son of Basketcase (but he got something similar, but a lot slower), Fracture (Copal motors), Shane's former FBS (standard 12mm Antweight motors). Think that covers the ones that don't use them.

What size are the wheels?

[Niels - Team K.a.L.M.]

chop suey has 78mm wheels I guess (70mm hdpe with bike thread around it)

On folding titanium. I stand by my point that heating Ti above a mechanical advantage point isn't beneficial to the properties.
