nice-keep us updated
i think there should be more build diarys as when i first started out i didn't no anything, and if there were loads of build diarys to look at it would have been helpful
Wheel base looks to narrow.
Calum look at my website, did a build diary for years, was inspired by Tornados one, a great read if you have the time.
Tony I would agree with Dave but it depends on how long the robot ends up, what controller are you using for the 400s.
Yep bit narrow now wider.
Speed Controler Got a Spare Sidewinder will use that.
Got a bit more done. Base done new mounts done. got to get box section for frame tomorrow.
Going to make it a 4 bar lifter. Got mounts for ram done. Now to start on the frame.
Got a bit more done main backbone done. lifter will attach to this.
Nice one Tony. Nice to see someone else attempting a new heavy.
Excellent Tony. Makes me want to build right now. Keep it updated mate :)
Tony pm sent :)

Bit more done started on the arm. Uprights made ram mounted.
