Hello all! So I'm coming out the wooodwork and starting a build diary for Scarab! Ive been designing for over 2 years, taking advice from a lot of generous colleagues and friends...
I have no team, just on my own so budget is small, but I am building a pincer crushing robot with a spring release mechanism and follow-up more powerful crusher (around 20t)
I decided to do this to have a challenge, and by all accounts thats what I'll get! (Still its cheaper than off roading)

Specs: (others seem to put this here too.??)
Spectrum controller
Esp32 for semi-autonomous control
2x e300 ampflow motors with ragebridge
Armour and structure 10mm hardox500
Crushing force (500kg spring, 20+t lead screw)
Weight: under 110kg (just!)
