Re: Robo Challenge - 2013 FRA UK Featherweight Championships

yup, will need to make a feature of the flag. Just remembered that the last time it was at GSL it wasn't painted was it? Suppose it is a bit different now then.

Nice looking spinner, with good drive too, staying up rite it will be a good contender

Re: Robo Challenge - 2013 FRA UK Featherweight Championships

What thickness bulkheads are you using on conker?

[Eventorizon]

Re: Robo Challenge - 2013 FRA UK Featherweight Championships

Its only 10mm HDPE for the uprights but supported by 2mm Ti

Conker 3 is already in design, reusing the outer body panels, but the new bulk heads will be 20mm Aliumec to support a HK-5035-800Kv motor which is about 4x more powerful than the S900's.

When I move to the Brushless I will be moving to a new disc with a single tooth, if you can call it that. I may cut it out for this champs though if I have the money.
