im needing a few questions answered before i can get started on my bot
what is a decent size for the featherweight bot to be , width length and height, i know ever bot is different but just some guidelines.
fixing a flipper, what would be better or is most done, fixing the flipper by hingen it on a bot frame, then the shell, or hinge the flipper straight onto the shell
thanks

Dimensions of feathers. The old BonX is one of the smallest I know. About 35cm wide 15 cm long(without axe) and 8 cm thick.
Hannibalito is bigger, 44cm wide and 40cm long (without flipperarm) Highest point is 15 cm.
If the shell is strong enough, I dont see any reason to make a seperate support frame. In the newer generation flipper I did the hinge is mounted on the ram. But those play with about 400 kg of instant force on the ram.
I would get a few components bought first, ie motors, batteries etc and see what size you will have to make the chassis to fit everything in.
yeah i will do, just roughly getting a size,
thanks guys

A great tip is to get a large paper and cut out to the right size for bottom plate, and place out the components on it like the pic in my profoile.
hey mat, what size of piping are you using for your pneumatics, and what is the size of your piston
Thats no pneumatic setup, but hydraulic, for a heavy (middle at lightest)
