Hello, I'm making my first featherweight.
I already searched in the forum some advices, but I made this thread to improve.
I also made some antweight, a flipper and a rammer.

I still don't know what the name is going to be.

The motors are 12V coordless drills, the batteries are from the same drills, but soldered in a 2X5 pack.

It uses servos and microswitches, the recever battery has a switch but the motors have 1 removable link for
each.

The body is wood, the top and bottom plate is 1 cm multilayer, the sides are 1.8 cm plywood (I didn't found 2 cm) and the front is 3 mm steel.

It's about 31 cm long, 44 wide and 8 tall, not counting the wheels.

I will add steel parts on the sides to make it roll on it's wheels.

I've got a spektrum dx6i for the TX and an orangeRX 620 for the recever.

That's it for now.
If there are any other italian roboteers, let me know!
