now thats a cool spinner
I do indeed Dave - thats what I get for copying it letter by letter![]()
Hmmmm..............Yes, that is indeed one scary spinner. However, goes to prove that it cant take its own hit. It died! However, I was more interested by the lack of true safety. Any one notice the screwed down link method? Scares me that does. And the safety restraint. If that motor powered up with that in then it would break the safety restraint. Or am I missing the point?
One more negative point, the poor s0d who won! He has to fix that before the next fight! LMAO
Mike.
This is from the event report:
As you watch the video, you can see Greenwave not spinning under control. The contactor shorted so the Etek motor was spinning out of control.
With Greenwave spinning out of control, Paul told Wayne if he wanted to hit him. Wayne laughed and said no - Wayne had already won the fight by disqualification because of the failure in Greenwaves weapon.
But with the crowd cheering, Wayne changed his mind and spun up the drum, going in for the hit. you can see the aftermath. The hit from Death Drum broke the contactor off the Greenwave, stopping the short.
Out of control spinner - eek!
You might say it was brave of Wayne to sacrifice his robot. Both to the oil-thirsty audience and the safety of the poor bloke who had to go in and somehow disconnect the monster.
I am always surprised that when a large spinner goes out of control, far from step back from the polycarb, people seem to get closer.
I would have let the batteries run down, I dont like this solution of having the other robot go in when there is no need.
