Re: scruffy

Are you holding back on The throttle a bit, only it seems a bit slow?

Re: scruffy

not sure if its the transmitter or the speed controller gonna try a different controller first

[plargen]

Re: scruffy

done another test with a different transmitter and it seams to be the same speed might try it on a higher voltage

Re: scruffy

found out why it was slow the battery pack i was using was a cheeeeep 1 from china and it wasn't putting enough power through swapped it for the 1 in scruffy and its now about as fast as scruffy

Re: scruffy

Re: scruffy

yup and welded with stick welder

Re: scruffy

OK finally got it all properly wired up and gave it a propper test run with the new battery pack and it will happily push a large wooden post (5x4 x 7feet long) along the floor, so far the cheep Chinese controllers are doing good buy will have to see how they do in combat

im aiming to fight my 2 bot later down on the basket ball court in the village hopefully be able to film it

Re: scruffy

just had a fight between my 2 featherweights at the basketball court near us and was very surprised at how well the 4x4 bot did and a bit disappointing at how scruffy drove which i was expecting to come out on top but the 4x4 bot hit it and rolled it over in 1 hit so think i will rename the bot night fury unless its been taken, i am also very impressed by the £15 twin esc that i got from china they barely got warm compared to the battery

scruffy drove grate in a strait line and the lifter worked well but the steering wasn't great and will need some work as it over steers hopefully manage to film the next fight will get battery's charged and see if i get the opportunity soon
