UK Champs 2006 Featherweight Competition

Ewan, stats of hornet,

- 2kg disc at the back powered by a pancake motor
- 4mm hardox sides and front
- ali base and polycarb top
- 2 12v golds on a 4:1 ratio with 90mm blue wheels
- 2 electronize 15amp

currently weighing in at 13kg (why couldnt the new limits have come in :)) so a bit of weight reduction will have to take place. I will probably just replace either the side or front panels with some ali. I really cant be bothered and dont have the time to drill holes left right and centre. Most of my time at the mo is being spent on having a running heavyweight.

Okiedoke, good luck getting it down in weight - Im sure Tony wont have any complaints with some ali here and there :wink:

Itll certainly be the heavy well be looking out for most for sure!

The more Ali the better. Just about to get the router out, got to lose 400g.

Just assembled my robot with the full armour on it . I think it is just slightily overweight . Better get some material milled out .

Does anybody know anything about Woodpecker in Heat F?

Ironside, Conundrum mk2, Tronic1?
Anyone know much about these?
I havnt driven Ploughbot properly for quite some time, and so need some practice before i can safely say ill win :)
Whos the favourate to win then?

Ironsides this belongs to Trev (Mighty Mouse) it is a 2 wheel drive hexagonal Hardox ram bot.
The last time I say Conundrum mk2 it had a spinning drum at the front driven by a EV Warrior and a wedge at the back.

Captian Scarlet is a featherweight Robo Challenge kit. had a practise against venom and ploughbot and dispite getting pierced and slammed into the walls it just keeps going and won half the time lol. Reliability is the key to this machine, lets just hope it works lol!

If you want jonno i can bring Venom to put on display.

Apart from Suprise which I know very well I have no idea about the others........ not even Small Torque LOL
With a brand new robot and very inexperienced driver I dont expect Small Torque to do brilliantly but rest assured that Jenny and I will give it 100% to get it to the final.

Conundrum Mk2 - Chris Levick

Chassis... Ali
Armour... Less said the better
Drive... 18v Drills with custom gearboxes
Power... Heavy NiCads @ 24v

Ive put an old picture on my profile, new bits that have been added since last time people seen it are a new balanced drum, one piece milled sides and better axle supports. As for shape its really just a wedge.
