Re: my first feather weight

That looks awesome!

Glad too see someone else using massive wheels!

Re: my first feather weight

Re: my first feather weight

awesome, how much does it weigh? why did you take the bike tyres off of the wheels though?

[harry hills]

Re: my first feather weight

weight is now 6.5kg on my scales. i took the bike tire off for two reasons:
1. the wheels would be too big other wise
2. im going to use it on some 100mm blue wheels

Re: my first feather weight

wanna keep it 6.5kgs and make or clusterbot with me? or are you gonna shove on a weapon?

Re: my first feather weight

Re: my first feather weight

A few tips..
1 use deans connectors instead of tamiya connectors as they have a higher ampage rating.
2. use a better speed controller eg Electronize/sabertooth (btw what is the rating of ur esc)
3 I like ur idea of having clusterbots

Re: my first feather weight

those are all things i kind of know, just they cost more money than i have, and would cost more to replace when i get my robot trashed.

my esc says 160a on the box but is more like 10a
