Some good websites there. That calculator was handy, now I know ill deffinately be safe using the 5a sabertooth.
I only managed to get 2 pics of 2 of the arena floor panels, as soon as I got to work we set off to Worksop to fit a job, so just took pic of what was on the floor.
I may actually attempt this, I got an RC car (albeit squished in the house somewhere, and generally half-working :P ) and I might just take it apart and mess with it to see if I can put something together. :)
Ok, So when the arenas done how should it be painted/powder coated?
Im thinking black frame, grey floor, red or yellow inner walls. What you guys think?
Don't care what colour it is, but it would be useful to know what type of paint you are thinking of using on the floor. (my thoughts would be to leave it as plain steel)
Get some paint thats got a bit of grip to it on the floor :)
Not too grippy. XFM had a floor that ate tires like nothing else. I was driving on the bare rims in 3 fights.
I remember that floor Leo, as you say, murder on the tyres, :sad: but the grip was unreal!! :shock:Quote:

Im thinking a polyurethane floor paint like robo challenge. Or just a steel primer.
Works for me! (especially with the wheels I have in mind! 8) )Quote:
