Conker 3 has been redesigned yet again!
Conker 3.9 - Whisk 3.6kg.jpg
Dave pointed out some flaws with the last design and I had some changes I wanted to make myself so now we are on version 3.9.

The main changes are to the front chassis. The weapon supports have been mixed with the inner wheel supports to allow for the weapon area to be widened. To strengthen the front end, the front is now wrapped in 4mm of Hardox which is bolted in with 9x M8 bolts. If anything hits is then there should be no compression at all from the Hardox or the whisk, which is also Hardox.

The Whisk weighs 3.6kg and has a massive 25mm of bite. Still got 2 Banebots 16:1 gearboxes with RS775 motors running at 6S, though I may drop to 5S, and controlled by TZ85A's. Weapon is driven buy a Scorpion HK-4035-800 off 10S, with a Scorpion Commander 50V for the ESC.
Currently it weighs just under 12kg with the top armour missing, pulleys, bearings and electrical gubinz so I will probably have to loose some weight somewhere but it can be done!
