Lol, copy&paste much with your general roboteering links? That's plagiarism you know :P
At least stick http://www.rogue-two-robots.vze.com in your 'other roboteers' section as payment

Re: a new beginning...

Well, what better way to use my 1000th post than too give you guys a quick update on whats been going on in the Team Orr camp:

My antweight event RFRC 3 was in September and i think i can say it was pretty awesome! had a good turnout with some new people and some new robots which was cool, lots of damage but that just adds to the fun! My all singing, all dancing house robot wasnt quite done in time but it should be ready soon. We also had several awesome Spall moments (the plucky little infrared robot that keeps on working) which was amazing...i thought it would be killed in its first fight TBH guess we will have to try harder next time...

Re:Team Orr's robots

so started work on a new fleaweight spinner called diablo (altho i am thinking of renaming it deathbed: the bed that eats :-P )

The brushless setup is here!

the motor has these cool connectors, but i think they may be cut off to save weight

http://s1219.photobucket.com/albums/dd4 ... G_4116.jpg

it came with some other cool extras

http://s1219.photobucket.com/albums/dd4 ... G_4118.jpg

screwed on the mounting plate

http://s1219.photobucket.com/albums/dd4 ... G_4121.jpg

the ESC is tiny!

and this is the motor and ESC together

servos are scheduled to arrive tommorow so it should all kick off this weekend!

Re: a new beginning...

Its good if you decide to rename it, then there isnt 2 robots called diablo.

[team_orr]

Re: a new beginning...

ahh yeah just noticed that, iv had the diablo name for a while, just thought id put it on a active robot, will probs change it anyway,

also, servo's are here :-)

[team_orr]

Re: a new beginning...

did alot of work yesterday, spinner should be mounted and soldered in today or tommorow, did a test and its very fast :-P servos are speed hacked

it weighs 35g ATM so hopefully inside the 75g limit, still need to add weapon mech, blade, and receiver though...

Re: a new beginning...

okay, so this isnt strictly just confined to robots, more RC all round, its not brilliant quality but i hope this will help some new comers thinking of getting started in 2.4Ghz and spectrum technology:
