He has 6 and 10mm to use, just a matter of weight.

Your all lucky mine weighs 13kg without battery, loads of m12 nuts and invertable friction drive wheels! I sense it's time to make Swiss cheese!

Re: 2012 FRA UK Featherweight Championships by RoboChallenge

Bruiser 2 was worse than that with the spinning bar, so we didnt make it in the end and just made a wedge, but it's still to heavy amongst other things, like no speed controller or batterys, so it probably won't be running at the champ we will try and finish it, but probably won't he able to.

drop a set of wheels, go 2wd, with the weapon and sensible armour, should see you right.

Drumroll and Carcinus are both ready to go. Pictures in the build thread: viewtopic.php?f=240&t=3285&p=131947#p131947

Carcinus will also have an additional weapon fitted when fighting Chuck. Not saying anything more than that, but it's all legal. The main question is: I wonder what will happen when an unstoppable force meets an immovable object? :wink:

Don't have time, and some ESC have some how arived, and depending on what there like, we might be able to do something and get it vaguely driving.

Fitted Lf3 with a new flipper system but it is 1.5kg heavier than the old system so have lightened the
chassis today and wired it up. Shall put it together tomorrow and see how much armour i cant put
back on and then test the flipper if theres enough time.

Thats pretty neat, how are you expecting it to act compared to the CO2 system?

Sadly, I've had to withdraw doorstop as some parts won't arrive in time (even though I was promised they would!). best of luck to everyone!

Is that a solenoid?

That's a shame
What parts do you need? I'm sure someone who will be there will have suitable stuff.

Custom made 5mm steel wedge and two machined HDPE wheels

Hopefully will make it to burgess hill!
