The Big Tauron Garage Sale! (Tauron 1 and 2, 5060 drive system, LiPos and more!)
Welcome to the big Tauron/Monsoon garage sale!
Edit 18th October 2020 - Added the NPCs and Ragebridge, updated the status of other items.
In order to make room in the garage, I'm selling a lot of bits - including Tauron 1 and 2. Please take a look below and reply below or drop me a message if you have any questions. The robots will be pickup only, please let me know if you'd like to view them first. Everything below is sold on a first come first served basis.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Complete Heavyweight Drive System
1 x Ragebridge V2 (SOLD)
2 x NPC-T64 (SOLD)
2 x NPC-PT444 Puncture Proof Wheels (SOLD)
The NPCs and Ragebridge are perfect for a heavyweight drive system. (I can vouch for these ones in particular, as they were used in Monsoon 1!)
Happy to post the Ragebridge, but pickup for the motors and wheels is preferred.

Tauron 1 (Chassis with drive system)
SOLD
Attachment 8922 Attachment 8923 Attachment 8924
First up for sale is Tauron 1, as seen on series 9 of Robot Wars!
Although this has all of the external parts, it's best considered a chassis and drive system. The only internal parts included are shown in the pictures. The weapon section and bar are included but there's no weapon motor or electronics. The weapon was converted to an experimental axe for some live events, and some of those chassis mods would need undoing to restore it as a spinner. If you wanted to get this running again for combat, you'd probably take the old weapon section off and fit a wedge. The drive system is pretty capable, with scooter motors, go-kart parts and chain drive. No electronics on the drive either, though.
Please note that if you intend to run the robot at events, you cannot run it under the name Tauron. The robot is sold as seen, please let me know if you'd like to view the robot first (we're based in Bedfordshire). The robot has fought at several live events since Robot Wars. Here are some specs:
Chassis - 6mm/4mm Hardox 500
Armour - 6mm Polycarbonate
Drive - 2 x MY1020 brushed DC motor. 1KW, 36v, 3000rpm 8:1 gearing ratio, all with standard go kart parts. 30mm live axles.

Tauron 2 (Chassis only)
Open to offers
Attachment 8921 Attachment 8920 Attachment 8919
Next up is Tauron 2, as seen on series 10 of Robot Wars!
Please note that if you intend to run the robot at events, you cannot run it under the name Tauron. The robot is sold as seen, just the chassis and armour, please let me know if you'd like to view the robot first (we're based in Bedfordshire). Whilst the robot does not come with any electronics, the chassis is in a much better condition that Tauron 1 and could certainly spin again at live events. Otherwise, this would be a fantastic collector's piece for any Robot Wars fan. (I may also consider parting with the weapon bar if you are interested in getting it spinning, please drop me a message if so).
The robot hasn't fought at any events since Robot Wars. Here are some specs:
Chassis - 4mm Hardox 500
Armour - 4mm Harox 500

SOLD
Attachment 8913 Attachment 8912
For sale is a brand new, unused, in the box RV-160-sh brushless outrunner motor. This is the 73KV variant, with sensors.
This would make a fantastic brushless weapon motor for a heavyweight, or a very powerful drive motor. (It was originally purchased to be a drop in replacement for the ME0708 but was never used. Hence the very similar specs).
For the full specs please visit the product page: http://www.revolt.org.il/rv-160-model/rv-160-short/
(Please note that the price from this website would come to well over £400 with shipping and import taxes).
