Gravity 5
also moved out of competitors :)
I've started with gathering all of the parts I still had :

next, piling up the parts to see what shape the robot should be :

was thinking about making G5 a little extreme :

But I didn't :)
Changed the way I normally build, this time I started with a hardox baseplate, 460x800mm. Fitted the gearboxes + motors and gave the ram + buffertanks a place

Made a battery box, and sort of laid out the position of the co2 bottles :

Re: Gravity 5
Loving it! Is there an estimated completion time you can make? :D

Re: Gravity 5
No idea when it's finished :)
Some more work done :
Made a bottle cradle, that's removable so I can get to the batteries and the speedcontroller beneath the bottles :

and how it fits on the robot :

Re: Gravity 5
i like the bottle tray idea. Pretty clever.

Re: Gravity 5
Neat. :) Have to agree with Leo, the bottle tray is pretty spiffy.

Re: Gravity 5
love your style of construction if I made a flipper I'd make it in the same way

Re: Gravity 5
Normally I make a box-section frame first, and then add armor, but this time I thought I'd try it this way :)
