Team Coolspeedbot: first feather weight robot

[Coolspeedbot]

I want to build a front-hinged flipper (firestorm) for my lad, but fitting all the internals and mechanisms is a head scratcher.

I can only imagine.

More CAD fun with Wolf-E including some stuff that could be made through 3d printing. The 'finished' plates have been laid out ready to be exported for cutting though I still need to double check the cutting tolerance of K-cut before finalising.

Did a fancy render of the Wolf-E CAD/ concept.

Looks great! I especially like those vents.

Well when trying to cut down weight best to make them look cool.

This is awesome, it's like the perfect pusher.

Fingers crossed, actually made a version of this design in Garry's Mod as part of a robot wars based gaming community and against the spinners took the hits well and managed to pit someone with it so the real version has a lot to live up to.

It is a fun little bot in the digital world, looking forward to having the real thing.

Did you run into any problems with spinners and the wheels getting chewed up?

did fine with the spinners but may not reflect real life damage.

[Coolspeedbot]

Just a fun little spinner concept no idea how accurate to actual spinner inner workings.

I like! Reminds me of Fissure.

thanks, had to do a lot of tweaking to Wolf-E to fit it, so if it can be done it might be Wolf-E II or a new machine.

Wolf-E's wiring nears completion (I hope).

It lives, It lives its working. now I just need to add a body for it.
