Thanks Gary

But no I aint feeling ok - spent seven hours today bent over a workbench drilling and sawing etc to get it done - so my back is aching now :sad:
And broke two drills bits which I only bought yesterday!

But thats the great thing about doing this robot malarky - its worth it in the end

Lol it certainly is.

Here is a video of the first spin up test of hornet 2, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6SEa-ilWTOM

It was done at the bottom of my garden using 2 hawkers directly connected to the magmotor (removing any potential problems with speedos or radio gear) with me huddled behind a piece of steel plate 10m away touching the contacts together.

The test was mainly just to check the mechanism and it all seems good. I think I can can free it up a bit more as it is a bit stiff but it will run itself in over time

Testflip of Hannibalito 2 on Hannibalito 1.3. Not unhappy with it.

In the words of Borat - I like, very nice!!
In the words of me - Hmm, could use that spare 3kg to install a parachute

Looking cool Leo
