Time for some good festive n00b flaming!

Dan: Sinclair C5€™s? You€™re such a caveman! XD

Chris: I€™d say 2mm clearance is too small€¦

Tim: Four LEM130€™s is pushing the weight a little IMO€¦ what thickness is the Titanium? What are the flipper and axe powered by? What hinge is the flipper?

Sorry Dave, just couldn€™t resist€¦ :P

Diotoir gets away with it. Plunderbird gets away with it. Even Comengetorix, who my robot is based on, gets away with it.

And Sinclair C5s have recently been found to be the most reliable motor around so

Anything running less then 5mm GC will get beached on the smallest of crude. I thought 3mm was fine on my first featherweight, I was wrong I run 10mm minimum and even that I still get beached on wedges and torn off parts of robots.

@ DAN: That drum is soo gonna break 4mm titanium.... I know feather weights with thicker pieces then that for there weapons.....

[siphai]

And then going at that speed and horsepower... that drum will total itself. :P

[knightrous]

Speed is the biggest problem, HP isnt too much of the problem

Oh, so its running on mechanics, thus taking about 15 seconds to fire? EVERYONE cares whats running them. And you still havent mentioned the flippers hindging.
