Here's an internal shot, it's very tightly packed-

First test video with a placeholder attachment to avoid damaging the floor:

That has to be one of the best overhead thwacky bots ever! Cool! It's going to be nuts with the chainsaw if it's anything like as twitchy as that. How will the heavier weapons affect the rapid swinging?

It'll probably slow it down a bit, but seeing as without a weapon the chassis is weighted such that the bot stands vertical and it's only got 8lbs for the weapon system, it should still work pretty well.

Insane

Still have to make the legs/feet for both configurations, but the weapons are coming along well-

[Max]

Looks scary, where does the weapon motor go?

[MikeNCR]

Weapon motor for the chainsaw will be positioned similarly to the circular saw motor, the shaft that's there is a placeholder until the motor/gearbox arrives.
