It could be me, but i totally dont see any resemblance to Chaos2 apart from the fact that it has a flipper.
Now if you had said that from Hannibal i would have agreed. Are you looking at my heavyweight? Cause that one was indeed based on Chaos 2.

I could just as easily say the bot on your profile looks like pussycat Mat...
well i cant talk both of my machines are replicas. Preditor will be here soon :)
Errrm i dont think so Ewan.
But in fairness Matt, we wouldnt have bots such as Storm 2 if it wasnt for Tornado/Kind B and many more. People have their own ideas, and take other peolpes ideas and either improve or change a few things slighty, its how the WORLD works.
Leo that bot looks cool and i cant wait to see it working. I made an attempt with a feather flipper called Flowrate, which was based on Chaos 2 and Hannibal, but was low pressure so more weight used with buffers and regulators and so on, and had very little weight left over for decent armour other than 6mm poly. Would have been afun bot to play with without spinners about. Go for it, cant wait to see it Leo!!!

Ahha guys, I figured the problem, half of you are looking at Leos link, half at his profile. He bought the heavyweight on his profile off someone else (the one that looks like chaos 2), the feather is the one on the link.
Looks a tough ol bot, please let us know if you have any other pics or even test vids if you get round to it.

spektrums are totally awesme yes got one with my FG bigfoot
looks cool, be nice to see it full finished
Wow Glen, im pursuing plans on a very similar design taking inspirations from Cobra with a compound angle shell but made from welded Ail. But yours is a much tougher cookie and quicker progress, very impressive.

Glen, just out of curiosity, what did the fan motor come out of? I was never able to find one suitable for my own design.
