Awesome
Its only been tested on grabbing an lifting one robot so far, and thats RIP. Which i dont think you will know of Chad, but its prob the UKs biggest Feather Weight and prob just over 12kg LOL. And it can lift that 500mm clean into the air right over my own wheels to move about easily to do what i want to him. LOL. Claws are made from Hardox so me hopes they will stand a big of punishment, but i dont think ill go head to head with a Horizontal spinner with the claw, thats what the front folks and hardox area is for. hehe.
Mr Stu
Good job Stu. Looks pretty cool.
Something different. And with interchangable weapons = options.
Just tested the axe with the new motor. Had to get the crow bar out to get the axe head out of the floor.
typical had a bit of first combat trouble at the weekend. First the gyro was turned up too much and wouldnt go anywhere then 3 seconds layer got flipped out by Little Flipper, now with Buffer tank, its awesome now more than before, nice on LF2! Then later one of the motor mounts came lose so no traction on left side so just span in cricles, damn! Looking forward to Brighton for some practise! LOL!
Mr Stu
Very nice Stu cant wait to fight it. Hope fully will have the Axe bot ready for Wigan.

Will
Look forward to seeing that in action at the weekend Will, DB5 will have its new weapon by then which is designed to combat 4wd pushers especially. Should be a good contest.
Wow - thats one helluva flat robot - nice
Looking great Will! Hope to see some vids when it fights as sadly I wont be able to get to Brighton, but its certainly a facelift on that old chassis of mine!
All the best, Ewan
