Thread: First antweight bot

  1. #1

    A redcon can more than happily run on 2S, it's the setup I use on all my spinners.

    For motors and ESC's this topic may be of interest: http://robotwars101.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=2187

    Now I'm going to advise against a spinner first but for a different reason: They're terrible to practice and learn to drive with. Antweights are a weight class that really amplifies driving skill and spinners just aren't great at teaching this. Plus the difficulty of just driving round your desk pushing stuff with a spinner...

    Rory's definitely still making them, but as far as I know he's swamped with orders since RW came back. Just be a bit patient, and I'm sure he'll get to it. Otherwise you can try the DasMikro from banggood - though you'll have to do some soldering yourself. http://www.banggood.com/2S6A-Micro-D...p-1032413.html

    Please note if you're recommending the Das Mikro ESC you should cover the fact it lacks centre braking and this needs to be modded in. Centre braking is a big must have thing in antweights.

    See this thread: http://robotwars101.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=2504

    And in particular this post for the fix: http://robotwars101.org/forum/viewto...&t=2504#p57290

    Fine for power, might be a little big depending on your design.

    This is the one I use in my spinner, lasts about 10 minutes from tests.
