Hi all
Since I lost out on smidsy, and I got permission to have a HW for Xmas, has anyone got a working heavyweight that they would be willing to part with? Rammer, flipper etc
All types considered, please PM me if you have one or know of any for sale
aren't you bothering with grim reaper?
I am... But, I want to get some experience with heavies first and since I got asked by my parents if you can find a heavyweight, do you want it for Xmas? I wasn't exactly going to say no :)
I might sell X-t, but it's just the shell :)
U own series 7 x-t?
Unfortunatelly not, it's the series 6/extreme 2 shell. Marlon still owns the series 7 version, and the series 7 version still works fully, but he doesn't use it.http://a3.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphot...7_455876_n.jpg
Message me the details of series 7 and everything else we discussed :)
Will do :)
If the series 7 version goes up for sale then I'm calling first dibs for sentimental reasons!
Lol, It might be difficult shipping it back from Austrlia, it's over there cos' that's now where Marlon lives.
Where there's a will there's a way!
That would be hard to get it back from there, but anything possible :)
Yeah, might cost a bit to ship it back, but if he was able to get it over there, you would be able to get it back to the U.K (probably). :)
HEYYYY! i thought i was gunna be the one buying x terminator series 6 shell ?
You can if you want, seeing as I did speak to you a while ago about it. Several people have asked me about it, still not sure what to do with it yet though.
Buy the parts to get grim reaper into a working condition instead, you will learn by doing this... I fear that if you did purchase a working heavyweight you WILL hurt your self due to lack of experiance....there not toys.
I am inclined to agree with Dave on this.
I would not wish to stop you from having one, but please be careful even a ram bot falling can injure you.
and lifting these things will dammage your back!
I wish there were more robot frendly sub assemblys you could get like motor and gearbox units ready to bolt in any heavy but there isn't that I know off! :uhoh:
suprised more people dont run the NPC stuff http://robotcombat.com/products/NPC-T74.html I only know of Dave running them, you can even buy hub adapters so you you can bolt the wheel straight on. Alot of the yanks use these, i used a pair on a project i did a while back and they seemed very well made.
I think they are good too. there was one for sale on e bay a little time ago but they wanted a little too much for what was a middleweight machine! but they make a very good starter HW :D
because you're looking at almost $900 for a pair inc shipping + whatever tax/customs charge they might throw on itQuote:

main reason he asked me to look as he doesnt have a lot of spare time so he would prefer one 'ready cooked' otheriwse it will take him a couple of years to fully get his one done
don't you have enough :lol:
2 ants 5 hw 188 fw :rofl: jk :lol:
im happy with my amount but my dad wants to run his own one :)
few more details from him, he would prefer it to be under £500 but £600 at a push
He may be willing to pay more for the right bot but any type considered
If you want to give me 600 quid for Scar we can work something out lol
If you got scar working witha legal weapon then he might ;)
either that for a good solid drive train so he is able to add the finishing touched
Why are you wanting rid of scar Tony?
I don't think he is, but if someone gives him £600 for it in its current state, I wouldn't blame him for selling it on :lol:
hahaha fair enough.
Exactly :wink:
suprising as it is, hes still after one, any one know anything please get in contact
