So mix of progress and delays on Killer-Wolf,
Killer-Wolf is currently needing some rewiring as the wires fell off the motors and decided to take the suggestion to shorten the wires to save some space. Hopefully I don't mess it up, I'm rusty with soldering.
I used some polycarb to make the new flipper (more to test the idea then use)

How neat is that!
Well the flipper has to protect the side panels from front attacks.Quote:

That's looking awesome I've spent weeks reading these threads and took the plunge into building one hopefully have some pictures to show to get every ones advice soon. If you all wouldn't mind
Well I wish the best of luck
I'm in Sidmouth Devon you would know any comp near by.
not sure, what weight class you thinking of starting in?
Was going to start with an ant weight then a pneumatic beetle weight
Parts so far
high speed servo for flipper
sabertooth motor controller
two geared 50:1 motors
1mm aluminium for flipper
1mm polycarbonate for body
sounds like a good start, have you spoken to the guys on Robot wars 101 forums? thats the best place to get advice on antweights.
