Re: team combat penguin build diarys

well harry decided he couldn't be bothered and decided to rebuild murphys law to make it featherweight weight, it is now something like 5kg and now isn't invertable and has no srimech. harry told me that you had made a start on your half but it then blew up or something and i heard no more about your part. i got mine working but then esc's broke also it had no wheels as it needed 125mm wheels. robochallenge said they could help me out with 125mm with nut insert wheels (this was before i knew how too make them myself) but then they decided/lost the ability to answer mine or harrys emails so dis-heartened i gave up on the cluster and featherweights altogether for a while. i've still got the chassis excluding lid in my shed though so it may make a return some day.

unfortunately my sister has decided to take scrubs box set to cyprus (even though it won't work on dvd players there ) so no more scrubs for me for a few weeks i'm contemplating buying the lost 1-6 series box set for £60 as i do love lost

Re: team combat penguin build diarys

60?? its called youtube my friend...
mine did kinda...die, but im rebuilding it so, yeah! i was actually talking to the people behind the melty brain robots and i was thinking about building similar to that, but limit it to 500rpm for regular arenas and then max for the RC arena.

Re: team combat penguin build diarys

jack, you still want to do the cluster? saying murphy's law is the featherweight limit is like saying deodorant is the kilobot limit
bugger off jonny about the fact that its just so bad becuse its not invertable, it does have a selfrighting bit, its called asking people nicly to flip me back over, seems to work so far
still got your stuff in my shed mate

Re: team combat penguin build diarys

Yeah i know, check your Youtube inbox matey!
And yeah, im definitely up for the featherweight cluster, how much does Murphy's law weigh again? If Jonny doesn't get his bit done we could enter it as a 2 part cluster for a bit until he gets his finished

Re: team combat penguin build diarys

oh jonny has gone for a hardox and nylon full presure speed 900 driven feather so maybe a 2 way is on the cards, i could squeeze and active weapon in to it then

Re: team combat penguin build diarys

giant electric eel is top priority at the moment but i might make a drill motor powered cheapy esc'd little thing just for the hell of it, i'll see what you two come up with first though. i've got the parts for a crusher system that i might bolt onto the existing third of the cluster i have, i reckon i can get it in weight with with 6mm hdpe lid.

more to come on giant electric eel later, harry when it's done i'll flip you back upright although if it stays the weight it is don't blame me if it ends up hitting the roof. by the way i wasn't having a go mate i was just saying that it has a significant design flaw considering the amount of robots cabable of turning it over.

ANTWEIGHT TIME!

cut out a new flipper blade for electric eel 3.5 after variant smashed the polycarb one at the last aws. the new one is made from 1mm titanium so fingers crossed it'll hold up better thn the old one. i also cut a new axe head for squidly didly from titanium. i also cut a steel ruler down to 5 inch, i'm hoping to use this as a blade on an overhead bar spinner antweight in future.
