Shell pretty much finished now;

Re: 360 - mini hypnodisc

It looks good dave, but I fear one good whack and the shell will bend on its mountings or shift, locking the wheels or at least resist them, there is no leeway in those wheel wells.

Re: 360 - mini hypnodisc

.................what daves trying to say is it should be fine, its got 2 on the front scoop area and 1 on each side i wouldnt have thought it would end up moving tbh

Re: 360 - mini hypnodisc

Even if the shell did bend enough to catch on the tyres, with the power of the motors it will just shred the tyre not jam up.

Re: 360 - mini hypnodisc

Bring it craig! lol

Dave- should be ok, if it rubs ill file it out a bit but i prefer the look of having them to a tight tolerance. Also it helps to prevent nuts and bolts etc flying into the robot.

Re: 360 - mini hypnodisc

modified a Sam Smith link mount today to have an integral power LED, thought it was a decent mod other people might like to try, only cost a few penny's;





doesnt look very bright in the pictures.. but its a superbright LED bored into the nylon mount. lights it up quite brightly.

Motors do get a bit warm...

since im not having a weapon i figured i got to put something brushless in there somewere...



Sorting out using this EDF brushless jet fan as a cooling unit.. think im going to put the fan into a manifold then drill and tap an M5 hole into the dewalt motors... have some pneumatic pipe and have the jet blowing air into the motors directly... Wont be done this side of the UK champs though.
