Ian I was thinking 4mm ali not steel. Does ye think Im maaaaaaaaaaaaaad.

On the electrolize front I was curious, so your thoughts are appreciated on that note. Seen as Im going for no weapon I do need power. Any ideas? (Dont suggest Astros please.)

Spinner proof, yes I know no-one can design perfect armour. But it doesnt stop one from trying. We cant just throw our arms up at spinners. So Ill try a few things a see what happens.

Thanks for the site Ed, that will help a lot.

Ed W, Ill get onto you about Gmax thanks.

I have also taken the shockproofing into account. I dont know how Im going to do it, but I have taken it into account. Was thinking of placing the controllers/radio gear loosely in foam to increase crash time. Also going to restrict cable motion as much as possible so they dont develop to much momentium when I get thwacked across the arena. Reducing the number of broken connections.

BTW is there a minimum requirement of Eds in every thread!!!

Tony I checked your site out, thats a lot of bots :-)

Any thoughts on battery power for 4 golds and suggested speedo setup?
