Finished the links for Gabriel one shown here. the back plate with the pull tab is about 5mm Polycarbonate

The fuse format shown below should fit this type of link too, and is rated at 150A just in case the 100A fuse fitted dose blow under normal conditions.
BTW has anyone else used 2 Roboteq AX2550 (as single channel controllers) in one robot before?
Some pictures of the parts used in the omni wheel test chassis, just in case anyone wants to make one. I have had a lot of fun driving this mad bit of kit I would recommend it. setting up the mixer was not difficult either.

I have chosen this as the main ball 500mm Polyethylene it weighs in at only 2Kg and is round! It has an access hole as it was a garden light fitting. The other picture is my attempt at making a mould for the manufacture of the access cover.

Had some problems with Gabriel at Barnsley I have rewired bits of it again and fitted a separate BEC with Isolating switches for that and the two speed controllers.
Also I have changed the links a bit, as they kept jumping out and stopping the robot in the fights.
since the modifications there has been no more problems. fixing different glitches seems never ending on this robot I hope I am coming to to the end of them!
Doing some work on Cherub I'm changing the lifter speed controller to a Bots-bits 85A unit Pictures to follow soon.
