Re: Team Jamsandwich Build Diary

It's been so long since my last update. I have been building Rukia little by little and trying to work out how to do this and that.

OK this is whats been done.

The chassis has been cut down but not by much because of that actuator acting like a fat man, taking more than half of my sofa!
And I have moved the wheels closer to each other.

Got my bearings mounted and soon to make my drive shaft for my motors.

And yes my robot looks big for a FW, well more like a obese FW but a good looking obese FW.

I should be ready for the events in October and I'm getting a 2 wheel drive rambot ready as well.

Re: Team Jamsandwich Build Diary

It's looking great! I plan to build something very similar, only with 4 drill motors for drive and not such a fancy actuator! I hadn't realized someone had already got going with a four-bar lifter in a FW. I feel like I'd be copying you if I kept my design...

Ah well. We'll just have to battle it out when the day comes.

Again, looks great. Please keep us updated!

Re: Team Jamsandwich Build Diary

Update

Well bad news for people who were looking forward to see Rukia at Kidderminster, is not going to happen.

The reason is due to the wheels not been in line properly and yes I have tried to fix this, but no it needs a new base and new plastic (Nylon 6) why?
It's because RG1000 is crap end of.

But have no fear I have been working on my 2 wheel drive rambot and there's not much to do on it.

It's name is Mr. Pink, yes I'm going into Reservoir Dogs here.

It has 2 speed 900's to drive it.

4x 12mm Nylon 6 bulkheads.

And 4mm aluminum plate base.

Here's a early build picture of it.

Re: Team Jamsandwich Build Diary

I can just picture *cough* M-M... Mr. Pink ( ) hurtling towards another robot so quickly that it launches them into the air. Please make it fast. A robot like that has to be fast. It just, has to be.

Hahaha, I can't wait to see something move. Update us often!
