Is that a 6wd or 4wd version of Storm II?

What motors, and how many are you planning on using on this mini storm II? Id like to see some specs if thats ok...
Cheers, Ewan

ive been speaking to ED on msn about mini storm 2 and how ever bigger **** I could be i wont but it sounds impressive I dont know if it will have a weapon

[storm]

God, its just a mini-storm II

So much hype..... so little reason

I give up. If I was building something powered with a windscreen wiper motor someone would try to hype it up.

Stoppit :P

Windscreen wiper motor!?!?! Oh my dear god- everybody reach for the extra titanium plating!

On a serious note, I knew youd start asking questions ewan! Im counting the days untill we see Even bigger daddy on the database- a mini storm 2.....

Putting in biohard-like lifters in feathers as, hmm, interesting, but entirely achievable- Im trying to make my machine really slim, and thats whats causing the problems with it atm.
