Yeah, im just using friction drive, its most reliable. Drive wheel has a inner tube from a (motor)bike on it.

Awesome, thanks. And what did you use for the track itself? Is it rubber off a treadmill or something?
I've done some research into building home-made tracks but the tracks on your machines seem much simpler!
yes, i would like to a video.Quote:

Miniroll is looking very effective, I wonder where you got the inspiration for it :proud:
Just watched your How to... video pt 3. Neat solution with micro switches!
Do you know what sort of current they can handle?
Hi, depends on the switches you get. I think that mine were rated at 10A, been using them for a long time, and havent had any problems.
Does anyone happen to know which material can take harder hits after vaccuum forming?
HDPE vs. makrolon/lexan
material thickness is about 1-2mm
I think that hdpe would be tougher?!
HDPE is more flexable than polycarbonate. 1-2mm HDPE is just going to bend and flex back, but that means the stuff behind the HDPE gets the impact.
Been building some robots for the Finnish robot combat event on 16.04
Also been busy building a new buggy!
