360 - mini hypnodisc

Re: 360 - mini hypnodisc

Go for a friction-driven weapon if you're going to build a ring spinner (invertible FBS), Dave. Their weapon doesn't slow down much, enabling for lots of hits.

Re: 360 - mini hypnodisc

...already got a solution to the ring spinner mechanics in my head and its not friction drive... Im leaning more towards a hazard style at the moment anyhow after i saw this for a bit of inspiration;

Re: 360 - mini hypnodisc

That looks cool. Y not have a counter balenced bar so its like a 1 tooth spinner, Have it penis shaped or rooster shaped. Male Chicken Slap?

Re: 360 - mini hypnodisc

tom your gonna get banned talking like that you crazy fool

i think the invertible full body spinner would be cooler but tis up to you

Re: 360 - mini hypnodisc

Why? I dont get it? Ahhhh wait... Yes, Sorry bad grammar.

Yup shudda tried harder in school to learn stuff. So bar spinner ye?

Re: 360 - mini hypnodisc

perhaps a translational spinner? with some brushless motors it would be awsome

Re: 360 - mini hypnodisc

Youd never get a translational spinner anywhere near as good as one of the others.

Re: 360 - mini hypnodisc

nah dont like translational. there not exactly monuverable. I think its going to be the hazard style just for fun.

Tom- i did think about a single ended bar spinner..

That motor, on 12s thunder power packs if grant will allow me to run 12s.. through the same sort of gearbox as 360 should give me around about 6000rpm blade speed. I think im going to aim for about 4kg of blade. nitride coated P20 again... it seems to do quite well. 460mm tip to tip.. to get away from engagment problems the one side of the arm will be about 20mm longer then the other.. with a pocket milled under it to balance it correctly. Dewalt drive, magnets and maybe a wotty 100S to control it....Its all just thoughts at the minuite but as with 360 im only going to be using the best bits and ill take my time over it.

It wont be anymore damaging then 360 i imagine, will just spin up faster, be way easyer to drive and hopefully be more predictable. 360 was always more of a told you i could get brushless working project then a combat machine.... but its still not totaly working so id best get that done before i start buying bits for the new one lol

Yep, and all credit to you, you did it with style

Re: 360 - mini hypnodisc

sorry to bump this but but have you shown the rose family what youve built? just asking

[Mouldy]

Re: 360 - mini hypnodisc

not really, Ive never met them personally.

For the filming of the gadget show a few weeks ago (due to be shown on the 15th) i told grant and James i wouldn't do the show unless i had a contract signed by Dave rose and the gadgetshow to make sure i'm not liable to be sued for using the image.. Dave signed it as far as i'm aware, so in a way i now kinda have the rights to use the image- just not the name hypnodisc.

They've seen some of the youtube videos of 360 and im told its got them motivated to start putting hypnodisc back together so we can take some pictures of hypno and 360 together in the summer some time. would be good to get hypno on static next to my bench at robochallenge events

build diary update

Nothing interesting- ive got one of my castle creations escs back from joe ford in texas, im just waiting for ed to cnc me a new motor mount for the new motor- got rid of dual brushless going for the one biggun... lost 130g of speedo and a 100g or so of gearbox so im going to upgrade the wheel arches to titanium at some point. Havnt got alot of time anymore and im trying to have abit of a break from robots for abit, until the rush for the next event

Hint hint. Maybe next week.

Re: 360 - mini hypnodisc

Has 360 fought Venom or going to as this will give everyone an idea of the result of the battle that never happened because of bigger brother............. Razer v hypno-disc
