We have decided not to have the flipper, and Matt is going to ask the steelworks near his house if they could make
the chassis for me, matching a Ming 2 picture, scaled down to FW size
I have all the parts, except radio gear and esc's
Those missing parts for the bot that i can get (Im gonna need a job though)
Radio Gear: Planet 5
esc's: Electronize
Roughly £115!
Hope all goes well with that. Are you going to have it ready in time for Kidderminster?
I'd better, or i'll have to fight Terrorhurtz NAKED! :rofl:
Part of a bet me and Matt did
Cool, In a way I hope it's not ready in time, it would be fun to see you vs terrorhurtz, not to sure about the naked part though :lol:
Still thinking about what Matt will have to do
If your reading this Matt. If it is ready, you have to attend Kidderminster in a dress with American Football shoulder pads
on and wrestling tights :rofl:
Im not joking btw
we will use it for some fun :)
Could double as a cricket bat!
i'll give you (insert pound sign here)2.50 for it
Hardy ha ha
Did try bench-pressing with some stuff inside it, ended badly :rofl:
3 pound :wink:
lol
I'll give you £4 so that I can use it as target practice for SA. :lol:
shall i bring some stuff with me to smash?
You can if you want, but the axe is very powerfull, so it'll probably smash through just about anything that isn't armour plated :)
ill bring my feather :wink:
:lol: ok, how's your hw going then?
ill bring some of the armour :lol:
:lol:
finally got ReAvenger driving proerly and ive got drawings for a new bot, it will take ages to be built but i wanted to snag the name, its going to be called 'Carrion'

its 'in progess' coz i wanted to bag the name. and the FW hydra is your cash, not mine :lol:
yes i know, but your the electronic know-how out of us two
BTW 900 post WOOOOOOOT!
i can set aside a day or two for the wiring, btw, HURRY UP WITH PARTS OR WE WONT GET IT FINISHED IN TIME FOR KIDDERMINSTER AND YOU WONT BE ABLE TO COME! :lol:
reminder enough for you? :lol:
I can still come without Avenger-ess right, i mean, I can help out with SA, if im lucky, i may be able to drive it and be
the event report guy for our website
been working on ReAvenger today but due to the design and the deans used, the link is a right bitch to get on and i have every chance of droping it into the bot. and i need wd40 on it or it does not work although i am very happy with the speed and the way it handles with the claws on
regarding lev 2, ive stripped it out, given it a hoover out and just started sanding the paint off ready for a respray. trying to track down a reg for it
almost got ReAvenger working now, just the last few bits and little kinks to sort out and it should be done in a week but the bigger news...
ive gone and bought the series 7 semi-finalist Grimreaper... it may only be the shell but it will be initially for static but will be up and running eventually. This is a gradual project over the next year or two but it will be in the arena once more given time. my aim is the 2012 champs but it will probably be more like the 2013 champs if i cant find a sponsor, but that should all be sorted tomorow :)
i need to revise my claw system for ReAvenger. dont have time before kidderminster now but between then and whitwick ill make it a bit less crap and probably all metal :)
I just noticed youre calling the old Grim Reaper 'Avenger'. I implore you not to :(
wtf does implore mean ? hows thae ant bits list getting on dave, can i buy bits from you or will you give me a list :?:
I believe implore means something along the lines of beg, haha.
Im·plore
€‚ €‚[im-plawr, -plohr] Show IPA verb, -plored, -plor·ing.
verb (used with object)
1.
to beg urgently or piteously, as for aid or mercy; beseech; entreat: They implored him to go.
2.
to beg urgently or piteously for (aid, mercy, pardon, etc.): implore forgiveness.
if it was up too me i would keep the name but gary (the original builder) has built a new version and would like to keep the name. its the price i had to pay to get the shell :angry:
How come you got to name it matt?
I would have named it Massive Pink Gumball :)
But the death based names you've missed out on:
Ankou
A-bad-un *drum beat*
Reaper
Death/War/Famine/Plague/Conquest
Any ideas to combine grimreaper and avenger?
(obvious ones)
Grim Avenger.
Grim Reavenger.

hummmm, maybe save avenger for another bot and call this one reaper?
The Grim Reaper has lots of different names in different cultures and settings, like Angel of Death or Thanatos the boat guide in Greek Mythology. There are loads of play-offs you could have from Grim Reaper.
angle of death? i like it, also a slayer reference there :lol:
Indeed!
Could always call it Raining Blood!
