If you want to take the risk buying 2 expensive speedo's...

Better safe than sorry, and for ease of use I can advice , Buy the XXL. it's $50 more , but then you have a speedo that can run with the big motors too (up to 14.4V Speed 900 low gearratio).

You can get scorpian xl's and xxl's from france at www.robotshop.com

THANKS BUT IT IS RIDICULOUSLY EXPENSIVE at least in the american one it was 65 quid

[harry hills]

if that is ridiculosly expensive, you are in the wrong sport

[lewisantweight]

what i mean is it is expensive compared to other places where i could get them from

I may be able to spend a lot on robots but I still consider 65 quid to be a lot of money. Easy up on the negative comments

Simple formula concerning robots.

Creativity*time*budget= robot.

If you don't have time (or don't want to wait) , you need to compensate in budget or creativity.
Or any other combination of those 3 basics.

well i need it ready for the Portsmouth roaming robots event so i might order the scorpion now and the rest later so i can get everything in one go

dont forget to add import tax and postage to the cost if you are getting it from the us..

Perhaps it may be useful to know Gabriel has 2* 14.4v GR01 drive motors (running at 12v,) and the speed controller is the Sabertooth 12A from Technobots.
I will be hopefully giving it a good test tomorrow but you can see from the video on the build thread that the speedo seems to cope quite well. cost just under £50.
