Lookin gd, would be cool to have a feather tantoWhat speed are you aiming for?. What thickness armour are you gonna use, and what size+voltage batts?
I hope your not using those wheels in the pic, youd never get the power down with them, get some ali ones vulced or get some of the big 100/150mm Robochallenge ones from james.
Speed about 15mph should give me good pushing power. Batteries 2 12v 3700 in series. Armour will have to see what weight I have left. Speed controller Sidewinder. No I wont be useing the wheels in the pic probably make my own as they need to be 160mm.
I screw bike tyres on Alphas wheels for grip. Focus/Do It All sell some wheels about 160mm. You using a gear reduction tony?
Yes I use bike tread on Dragonstrike probably do the same on the new one. gear reduction about 4.5 to 1. Ewan if you go to http://www.teamdragon.org.ukwww.teamdragon.org.uk kishar page theres a vid of kishar spinning up its disc using the HTI motors. In fact it got stuck in Eds arena wall at Colchester.
Looks very good. Well I do have two hardox discs and four HTIs to play with...
