(FW)Nibbler- Horizontal Spinner

[Cameron_S]

Thanks for the advice so far.
So 30 amp ESCs out and Tz85a in. Thanks for the information on mounting brushless motors, understand that a lot better now. For hardox I might make it a problem for future me and sort it out when I need it.

At 1mps collision speed there would be about 2.4cm of bite. Much more realistic and thanks for the spot.

As for the weapon motor, shame the NTM wont do as the next step up gets a bit pricey. The outrunners seem to have a huge jump in price once in the 4k power level, so I might end up having to go down the the inrunner path. I originally didn't want to do this as the increase Kv makes single stage reduction harder, but it looks like I have little choice. Would something like http://www.hobbyking.co.uk/hobbyking...Motor_4kw.html be more suited for the job? Or I could be irresponsible and use the NTM motor and have it hate me and look to upgrade it as you mentioned. The aluminium is a bit of a shame as this was one of the few parts I've already brought. Never mind I could also just keep it for when the bot is in wedge configuration.
