SMIDSY - For sale
SMIDSY - FOR SALE
had it for a fair few months now but I dont get time to use it, so i'd rather it goes to a new home, someone who can get it back in the arena on a regular basis.
A really good robot, appeared on the Robot Wars show !!! Your chance to own it !!
The spec...
Stainless steel chassis
Steel and polycarb armour
2 x bosch 750 motors and 4 wheel drive system.
2 x Ncc70 4qd speed controllers and Ian Swan mixer.
I fitted the disc, which is all working, which has another Ncc70 4qd for control rather than a relay. however you wouldnt be able to run the disc at RR events.
If i get the right price, the robot will come ready to run just needing radio equipment fitting, i have two 12v hawkers which can be fitted, Failing that someone can take it away as it is and add their own batteries as im keeping the nicads.
Open to SERIOUS and SENSIBLE offers. Put it on here first, if no takers it'll go on ebay !

Re: SMIDSY - For sale

Re: SMIDSY - For sale

Re: SMIDSY - For sale

-
Re: SMIDSY - For sale
Then if Nither me, Gary or Jonny got it, then I wonder who did?
-
Re: SMIDSY - For sale
Its mine, getting rid of the disk and jaws and giving it a storm 2 style lifter and a flat to the floor front scoop :) possibly either an actuator or a little pneumatic ram at low pressure running off a 600g bottle if the space is there.
it'll pretty much look the same but hopefully be more competitive
bought it as I don't wana make my own heavy as im a feather guy tbh. but wanted something to use every so often

Re: SMIDSY - For sale
DAM U CALUM!
at least its gone to a good guy :)
-
Re: SMIDSY - For sale
You mean Jonno spent all that money building the disc and new jaws and your vandalising it with another flipping weapon? BLASPHEMY! It ain't SMIDSY without its jaws...
-
Re: SMIDSY - For sale
no im giving it a better lifter and ditching a weapon that cant be used anymore, not like the jaws would be any good at todays events
-
Re: SMIDSY - For sale
you would need something like 5 tones to be crusher, could make it a grabber but its the wrong shape
-
Re: SMIDSY - For sale
Does that mean Scar has to remain a spinner too even though it won't be able to compete with that setup in place?
I'm all for keeping originality in the old RW bots, but there is not point in just leaving them completely as they are and letting them lose all the time, if anything, making it competitive again with a slightly different setup should be welcomed in my eyes :)
