The WayBack Machine isnt up to full capacity, but its still there, and it has a lot of threads from that day, though you cant get into thread archives. Try it.
I have tried that, although I havent actually gone into them in that much detail...may revisit it tomorrow, or just be lazy and ask you guys :proud:

if a windscreen wiper motor will give enough power to lift the arm with a robot on it, or if itll handle 36 volts
Well seeing as the majority of Windscreen wiper motors are designed to run on a 12 volt system, you might just get away with 24 volts if you dont use it a lot, but 36 volts and you will have a burn-out.
And for a wiper motors to lift another robot, forget about it (unless you want a slow lift)

Hence why I always tried to save copies of the fights I wrote on.
And god, wasnt FAR 8 massive with all the side-events :uhoh: I forgot it was that big

Any problems with this one?
It would help to say where the flippers hinged from, is it from the back of the robot or just the back of the wedge?
Also, non SLA/AGM car batteries are banned, as far as I know, and those sorts of batteries are prohibitively heavy anyway - you could use NiCads and free up more weight.
Maybe?:mrgreen:
Be a bit more sure Mark!:lol:
How many NiCads would I need?
Rear-Hinged means the back of the flipper, such as Chaos 2.
