Team Triforce Featherweight drum

[TechAUmNu]

Now back from Insomnia, unfortunately the harder rubber for our wheels didn't arrive in time and the 50 shore we had was just way too soft, we found a bunch of issues and fixed pretty much all of them at the event.

In our first fight when we tried to turn the rubber came off our front wheel and jammed the belt on the left side. The right side drive pulley on the motor came loose so we had no drive.

Second fight we took the rubber off the front wheels to have 2 wheel drive and added grub screws to the pulleys. Everything was working great. We took out Telekinesis's wheel which knocked him around. He hit our armour and broke the bolt holding it at the front. Unfortunately the bolt was also holding our spacers in place at the front to keep the drum off the floor so we got high centred.

Third fight (Whiteboard 8 way) we got rammed at the start and lost traction for some reason, miraculously the hammer missed our drive belts and vesc sitting on top of the bot. We got shunted about a bit and X-303 hit us a few times, eventually righting us. We got traction again. I was unsure if we were doing count outs as it was a whiteboard and moved around a bit (accidentally hitting the claw and the wall lol) before being told to stop moving as I had been counted out.

We actually took no serious damage and its still working fine. So we are going to keep the drum and redesign the chassis to make it actually move!
