I seem to be collecting the 500mm globes now

These are the wheels for the MK2 version of the hamster robot, the wheels are 100mm diameter this is quite large but I wanted the load capacity for the ballast weight up to 10Kg!

It is the bigger 30A 24V speed controller that blew when one of the two drill motors seized a while back.

I think the relays on this one are the 2 black boxes on the left hand side of the board they have something like NAiS ACP131 on them, dose anyone know were I can get these or something to fit.

This stuff is not something I would try but its bust anyway so I may as well have a play.

Got this to try to get the colour scheme right, when the time comes.

I realised I hadn't said anything about the new E-Knock and how it worked out in the arena on it's first event.
Basically it worked perfectly, the new wheel design gave no problems at all in fact I was stood on the robot and very carefully drove it around the arena, this was between shows.
the blade on the front was fine and the motors with the new speed controllers worked with out fault.
the only thing I need to do is increase the voltage on the motors or change them for some 12v ones as it was too slow in the fights, this made it a bit boring to drive
the picture is to show the old E-Knock for scale.
BTW i may be selling the old one in the near future.
