Those batteries should be fine for running your robot. They're pretty much the norm for people who haven't gone down the route of lithium batteries. I tend to go for packs around the 3700mAh mark but that's just personal preference (and dependent on what weapon I'm running); 3300mAh would certainly see you through a battle though.
got a bit of an old metal locker, i'm using it for the bumper as the points on the front are getting mangled and bent.
Got some metal from school, which i'm using to strengthan the lifter.
Making the limit switches circuit at the weekend;
Also got the 3300mAh Ni-Mh battery from century -uk
I demand pics! :)
ben were's our video? have you put it online?
Our vid is coming i've still got to edit it.
Alex and I made a video of our to robots fighting in the old kitchen, but that was when my robot was half-built.

LITTLE UPDATE
The event went well, I didn't break anything. The guys were really friendly and helpful towards me and I will go again =)
BATTLE 1
All went well but I got flipped out by team shock and the lifter motor mount broke.
BATTLE 2
Same again but got flipped uposide down
BATTLE 3
Same as battle 2 really
BATTLE 4
This was the good one. I got flipped upside down and some kind person flipped me onto the railing and back up.
But after that i got flipped upside down again.
That's a lot of flipping!
All these demands for pictures makes me really wanna see what you've made! Put some up!
yeah i'm trying to uplaod pics but i'm having a few problems with the size of the pics.=)
Use something like photo bucket and then just post links on the forum.
You are limited to rather small sizes on the forum, 800px I think?
got a pic of my robot flying, hopefully getting some more pics of my robot at the event.

Great Vid Me wheels come off!
Does your robot not Invert?
Not yet! the next update is to make it four wheel drive and make it be able to drive upside down
Went to homebase today and bought 3 drill motors (I broke one and I'm upgrading it to 4 wheel drive).
I've just taken them apart.
are you going to try and get it to run inverted yet?
Yeah i'm going to make it 12mm shorter so it can run upside down.
Unsoldered the useless wire connected to the drills.
A little concern is the name of this robot to do with nuclear or is it the team name?
