Wow. Sounds real impressive! I miss seeing so much of the old robot wars stuff and antweights and whatever else. I must get more involved in it all again!
Hi Guys. Well, for those who attended AWS 19, both my robots were built, but F.I.N and Baby Hell have undergone rebuilds:
F.I.N: shorter, allowing the thick armour to go right over, also allowing weight for side armour, switch has been taken out to allow more weight where required, and all the batteris now on top of the servos and under the receiver, and heavier nails, providing a more substantial flywheel effect.
Baby Hell: Everything is inside the robot now ! lol. I took off the problematic wheel guards and have 2mm polycarbonate offset from them, so no more rubbing. Plus, the axe has had its position changed, so it has a longer swing, may well change the head back to a screw, as the spike doesnt appear to do much
Well, Ive been doing ants for years now, so its about time I posted here.

Christopher, why the 480 mAh li-poly?
Mainly that they were the perfect size for the ant as the shell is very compact and requires certan dimentions. Have I done something wrong?
just think theyre a bit big,
im currently running 130 mAh in DBA Evo and 180 mAh in Katjusha and DBA Evil.
250mAh Etec Tim.
nope, not anymore :P, the Etec one is yours
Ah you ment Katjuscha the second. My bad.
Mi scuzzi
more pics new ti chassis now =]
