Re: Bodge Job's Build Diary
Done a little work, fixed Bruiser, but not the lack of control and random swerving problem. not doing the axe any more, as its overly complicated, and it would be to similar to other designs,so i'm making a bruiser 2 instead, but im keeping most of that quiet at the moment.
I have also done some work on rocky( the beetle weight drum bot), here is the video of it currently, the belt for the drum has broken and its held together with duct tape http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BGtpfMp9lpk but it has next to no power, so i may change it to the 30:1 MFA gear motors rather than the 15:1's as it should drive more like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zzCbhEZR ... er&list=UL
this is a demonstration of the drum with the old chassis, (it was filmed in the summer by the way, I don't live somewhere hot like that ) sadly the drum including the non spinning shaft is 1kg, so I need to lighten it a bit i think the shaft alone weighs 200 grams, so I might get someone to mill it down for me. i have also tried to sort out the beetle weight flipper, but i cant find light enough parts.
