Go for a speed 700 then. Those don't run much faster than a Speed 900 clone.Originally Posted by mattsdragons
And why 50mm wheels?
Also, you could go for Big Nipper or Hard setup.

Only just noticed their too big xD
Its from the 6wd crusher I bought, turning them into 2 robots, one with big armour and the other with a big weapon
Why not just build it that way it was supposed to be built or start from scratch?
Want to use the 6wd set us as its far too awesome not too use but is designed for 50mm wheels and would rather get 2 better robots and use the 6wd set up for invertablility
what machine is this?
It was calums new pinsor, he then sold it too me and im taking the weapon pod out for another robot with a bit vertical crusher and this one as a heavily armoured 6wd invertable rammer, 8mm T6 ali sides and 8mm hardox front and back and 4mm hardox lid
Its been built by some of the top guys on the forum, possibly some of the most meticulous craftsmanship too to make it specially designed to work a certain way on the available width. To take the weapon off presumably you need to remove the bulkheads that hold the weapon as they will be too high? Which means you remove the bit that holds part of the motors on, so you're left with wheels and a baseplate?
I can't understand why you wouldn't just go from scratch, buy 6 Gimsons and a chunk of plastic/metal and whack any sized wheels you like on them then you have a 6WD rambot sorted no problem.
Mostly because 6 gimsons is a couple of hundred ££££ which I aint got, I have a 6wd chassis here and I like the compact design of it so easy enough to get all the working I need in a small enough to make with stupidly thick armour and it will still be under weight
Are you 100% sure the wheels on that are 50mm?
I'd need to look up pictures to check, but if it's the chassis I'm thinking of, the wheels used on it were 75mm ones. They were blue wheels and 50mm is tiny for them. The overall diameter of a drill motor is roughly 45-50mm and that chassis had drill motors fitted when Calum had it, with plenty of clearance on either side.
Are there any pictures of the machine? I don't understand why you wouldn't want to run it as is
