Re: Omega HX

What sort of gear ratio you running alan? Looks cool.

Re: Omega HX

Its either 17:1 or 20:1 cant remember which, think it might be 20:1 to help stop motors getting too warm, which would give it about 16mph.

Re: Omega HX

Managed to get some more done today, finally! Roll cage is done, battery tray is half done (although needs mod'ing as its abit tight).

Something I think every single one of us would like to do with a robot.
