Ahh itll be alright. Along as you have plently of spare chassis.

If you dont want to be rebuilding frames after two or three events, I recommend making the core of the frame from 10mm aluminium. I have had several years experience on this and 5mm just isnt enough! To find out why, check my build thread: http://www.robowars.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=74&start=0http://www.robowars.org/forum/viewto...p?t=74&start=0

Greetings Nick,
is that old wreck of yours going to be fit for SF next June?... looking forward to introducing it to Pillow Torque and Pain In The Asp :wink:

You could built it from Polypro. Dragonstrike armour is also its frame as well. It has a 2kg hardox 650 disc driven by a EV Warrior.
Any picks of Pain in the Asp yet Geoff.

Not yet Tony, its still a bit of a work in progress at the moment, hopfully have something early in the new year.

is it still june geoff? thought it was brought forward.
must say i dont follow as closely as i should.

my advice on a mag powered spinner... dont. at the point on the learning curve you currently find yourself (no offence meant of course) this idea will just cost you loads of money, and it will break.

learn from all those in the past that spent money on nice bits, only to burn them out or have them destroyed, when 6 months later they had learned from their previous machines, enough to at least have a chance to have used the nice bits effectivly.

the term dont run before you can walk is appropriate i think. if you must build a spinner, use lower power motors for now, and learn all the lessons a spinner builder must learn on cheaper components.

just my suggestion.

Note to self, dont mention spinners and magmotors

what about spinners and eteks mate?
lol
selling your disk yet? i know a few of us are keen to line your pockets for it

why bother with expensive ,heavy interference causing motors. The new generation of brushless outrunner motors is getting ready to kick ass.

Ok Geoff, you have completely intimidated me and Jolt. Ill be hiding under a rock come June - this rock to be precise: http://www.robowars.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=947http://www.robowars.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=947
