        My brother wanted his robot added so here it is.

        Splash!
        Weight 6kgs
        Drive- 2x 9.6v drills running 100mm wheels
        Battries- 12v Ni-Mh pack
        Speed Controller- 2x RC smart 50Amp
        Armour- 18mm MDF and 6mm plastic

        It is made from parts from old machines and was built in a day but no matter how hard I try I just cant break it.

            18mm mdf, thats pretty tough material to get through.

            but it leaves quit a mess when a spinner hits it.

              From what I see he uses it as a structural strength (like alu angle) which looks like it works quite well.
              Looks nice will.

                  Just finished the first set of spin up tests with hornet 2.

                  Managed a good dozen spin ups with the disc mechanism working well. The disc is obviously unbalanced as it was vibrating the entire machine around a bit.

                  The vibrations managed to dislodge a number of bolts which allowed the disc to flex slightly and to take out the flange on the timing belt cog attached to the magmotor.

                  Bit of repair work to do and some improvements to be made but it is looking good for the eurochamps in july.

                  Photo of the damage to the timing belt cog is on my profile and i will be uploading videos to youtube soon.
