Ian,
I posted a reply to you but it dont see it above. The Electronize controllers cannot take 36 volts as supplied but they can be modified by removing or replacing the few components that cant take this voltage. Of course you need to use the external relays version.

Julian, good news (so far), my heavy is looking like the chassis anyways will be around the 50kg mark.
I am planning that the weapon at the back is removeable with a few bolts so i may be able to make a version which i can enter in middleweight contests. As ever I cannot guarantee anything but at least it may be another middleweight in the UK!

hi everyone
jus so u know id like to tell u im currently drawing up the plans to drop Tanto from 100kg to 50kg
Plans so far are good looks likely to be on target, reason for the drop is ease of carriage, and I want to take her off to America and ican dramiticlly decrease the cost of flying if i have a middle
Ill keep u posted but shell be in her heavyweight chassis til i can afford the new shell and wheels. The rest of her should stay the same bar the lithiums I am putting in which will also help with the drop in weight. 2 Eteks in a middle? yes the answer to your question.

Picture on profile of Maxus so far.. Weapon is going to be interchangeable from a mag powered egg beater style blade or an actuated set of lifting spikes at the front.
Armours going to be 8mm titanium front and back and 6mm down the sides
Probably going to run it with craigs middle as a cluster bot team thing at normal events.

Thats actually a very good point John, something to consider?

Middleweight database
obviously thats down to the event organiser to either make sure there arena can cope, or to say no its too dangerous im happy driving it around against none flipper heavyweights though, until my new heavyweight is finished.
Ed- Ive got those jet engine designs you wanted in my car. you should be able to machine most of the parts at work, but youll need someone to roll the titanium or stainless for the exhaust to a decent quality and the pettle valve will need spark eroding or lazer cutting.
