last time i post here lewis, sorry 8)

any update on your build?

ours or his :lol:

Well either.lol

It's been so long since my last update. I have been building Rukia little by little and trying to work out how to do this and that.

OK this is whats been done.

The chassis has been cut down but not by much because of that actuator acting like a fat man, taking more than half of my sofa!
And I have moved the wheels closer to each other.

Got my bearings mounted and soon to make my drive shaft for my motors.

And yes my robot looks big for a FW, well more like a obese FW but a good looking obese FW.

I should be ready for the events in October and I'm getting a 2 wheel drive rambot ready as well.

It's looking great! I plan to build something very similar, only with 4 drill motors for drive and not such a fancy actuator! I hadn't realized someone had already got going with a four-bar lifter in a FW. I feel like I'd be copying you if I kept my design... :uhoh:

Ah well. We'll just have to battle it out when the day comes. :)

Again, looks great. Please keep us updated!
