feather looking good! Have you mounted the ram yet?
Make sure you cut those bolts down, that will probably save you a good 200-300g in excessive bolts :P
Excluding the outboard wheels it looks a lot like Envy. I said this the other day to Dave but, are they Robochallenge wheels? They, like his compared to mine, seem very very blue! :lol:
they're what they're selling now until they finish their 'competition' wheels
Ahh I see, they look a lot harder and less grippy than the old ones? Are the competition wheels different to the old ones?
competition ones are grippier, and red. check team shocks build diary for pictures (they're fitted to shockwave2)
Ahh yeah I remember seeing that now.
Talking of wheels it may already be time to buy a new pair, I must have lost a few mm of ground clearance today. I got the main body of the featherweight finished and the drive wired up. The pneumatic system would work but lacks the safety features needed so that won't be gassed up until that is sorted. It is just at the stage it is presentable for marking. I will get the feather back from marking in a few weeks to get it from marking ready to combat ready.
Some pictures of the feather:

Looks awesome, glad someone has built a Pneumatic 4 bar lifter.
Also liking the flight-case-esque aesthetics.
