My new feather weight HOOVA
Stats
2x 12 volt drill motors
Windscreen wiper motor powered flipper
2 electronize 30amp speedos
3.3 amp sla battery
8kg of weight expected when finished
armour and chasis 6mm polycarb + hoova old hoova!
Cost around 20 pounds to build.
A robot for my girlfrend who is a clean a holic. Quote The only robot that I would want is a robot hoova. So here it is!!!
Yes i know its rubish and I expect it to last no more then one competition. Most of the components are solid and hopefully it will break into peices and I can put it into a nice part steel part polycarb chassie.
But till then long live hoova!!!
