Been working on Spinza's chassis a bit, here it is with the Lipo in the back and the polycarb sheets top and bottom.

Sweet! looks like a fairly balanced machine. How big is the bar going to be?
Cheers. 200mm by 45mm
Just something to keep me ticking over while I wait for parts and money for the eggbeater.
Since Shane is busy making the arena fantastic and generally doing cool things, I've been sent RPM to rewire and rejig.
Got it this morning, and just span it up.. I am very impressed!

I will make up a build (rebuild) diary for it aswell as a bigconkers page soon so I can picture spam :P
Impressive! What might be useful is if you could put up a parts list of what's gone into RPM, that way we can get an idea as to what clearly works :)
Any idea what pulleys and belts are used on the motor? Everything I've found is a bit big and a bit pricey.
I'm using 2.5mm pitch, but I've already snapped a belt.
RPM uses a O ring.
The Bigconkers site will soon have a seperate page dedicated for The Slaughterhouse events, Videos and Pictures. Projects can still be posted on there too. Started the scoring system and got some led score boards working. Need to program them now with their judges buttons. Nipping to maplins later to get some LEDs for the F1 style start board for the fights. Got the first mock ups of the Logo too...Changing it to suit and should have a 2nd mock up soon. I have a brilliant idea too that will add a new dimension to the arena...but need time for that so wont say just yet. still lots to do. Got the mobility scooter project to fit in between all this too. Good job Air is ready for battle. :)
