Featherweight Robot Wars Replicas?
For my featherweight build, i'd love to build a version of a robot from robot wars. I'm not really building them be particularly successful, I won't exactly win many competitions, heck, I doubt they'd be allowed. I'd just like them to be a fun hobby. These robots I've picked are relatively simple to replicate and play tribute to some old faces. The robot I'm mostly heading to is cunning plan because I don't need to scale down, as it was a feather to begin with, and it's simplicity. I'd only need to add a couple of holes on the top so it can run inverted or add a small moving bar on the top, though probably the former. Diotoir is also a good possibility because I could use a linear actuator lifter but also have the motor on a hinge so it can double as a spike, like nemesis. I'm pretty sure fur falls under 'snagging materials' which I think are banned. I also don't really know how to contact team nemesis, though Oliver Steeples has a Linkedin account to contact him through. What are your thoughts? Should I go ahead?
UPDATE: I've decided to purchase three cordless drill motors, to for the drive and one for a weapon. I would like to start on a replica of Typhoon, so basically Typhoon Cadet, if it's okay with Gary, as I believe he's the only member/former member of team typhoon on here. I doubt it'll be in many competitions until I have confidence that it can survive one.
