Tashic's Robots

The TZ85s are incredibly robust, I've heard them be pushed to insane amp rates and still be fine. Go for a pair of those and shock mount them properly, you'll very rarely have problems I'd imagine.

Heck, I had one of my 900-can motors stalled (on 4S) for a while in one of the whiteboard fights, the motor was pretty toasty afterwards and the TZs still were fine.

Also, HDPE I would say is a lot better than Polycarb, most of the stuff I've seen made of polycarb gets cracked after a good hit from a spinner unless you use very thick stuff or design it extremely well I think. Welded steel would work, but the question is for all of it, what thickness?

20mm HDPE will stand up to most punishment, probably a good starting point perhaps. I went welded hardox with HardWired 2 and got no major damage throughout the champs, but if I did then it's much harder to repair. HDPE, you can take off a panel and replace it, and it's cheap to do so too for the most part.
