Many thanks! I've got pretty much all the bits needed to rebuild the robot now.
Going with the Turnigy speed controllers as suggested and 2 of the Gimson 13.7:1 motors to get it running. The shell is now 10mm HDPE all around rather than use Steel in this one though there'll be enough bracketry to see some metal being used. Ultimately, the robot is going to end up looking a little like Knightmare from RW Series 4 in terms of a general profile I reckon.
The things I need to decide on is:
- Batteries. For the moment, the SLAs I have will do for testing but I think something different may be warranted here. I was looking at LiFePO4 batteries... haven't made my mind up on that front yet.
- Weaponry. I can either go for the spinning bar again or challenge myself for something more involved.
No pictures yet, the body plastics only arrived this morning and I've not really had a chance to do anything substantial with it.
