Re: Team Shock's Robots

Managed to locate the gas leak today- should be sorted now. Also got round to painting it.



Also started work on my new fleaweight- Inertia XS- there will be 2 of these made to enter as a clusterbot. Made the disc for the first one. It's 36mm diameter and 5mm thick made from 3 layers of titanium

Re: Team Shock's Robots

the bot looks good.

what's the scoop made from mild steel?

is the wheels you are using from gimsons robotics?

[teamshock]

Re: Team Shock's Robots

Thanks,

The scoop is 3.2mm Hardox, The wheels didn't come from Gimson Robotics but I think they are the same ones.

Re: Team Shock's Robots

We are working on it at the moment as Dad has finally made a start on the gearboxes for them- not sure when Soundwave will be finished yet but it will make an appearance this year

[teamshock]

Re: Team Shock's Robots

Shockwave is now pretty much finished- over a month early which must be a record for me.

Also been working on my new antweight clusterbot which will have 2 fleaweight versions of Inertia fighting together- here is the first one- Inertia XS1



And a quick video of it driving http://youtu.be/TeVYPcC4JwM

Will get a video of the disc in action when the new brushless arrives.

Re: Team Shock's Robots

looks very nice good job

Re: Team Shock's Robots

Finished Inertia XS1 today and got the spinner working- at 50% throttle in the video but it seems to work well considering the whole thing weighs only 75g!

The parts for XS2 arrived today and I aim to get that one done when I get back from uni.

I do like the idea of running 2, smaller Inertias as a clusterbot- might have to make a featherweight one

Re: Team Shock's Robots

Decided to give Inertia XS the coke can test- seems to do the job- also gives you an idea of how small it really is

Re: Team Shock's Robots

It is tiny Good comparison, looks much larger in other pics imo

Re: Team Shock's Robots

Now do the same but with a full can. That has been shaken up.

Re: Team Shock's Robots

I did that once, I was testing F.I.N on a bench and hit a full can of coke, went everywhere!

Re: Team Shock's Robots
