not done an update in a while been busy with work and other stuff..

Haven't done anything on my projects but ive been running a voluntary course to get kids involved in engineering via cadburys..

Helped them design and build a power tool drag racer ;

Wont be that fast as its only powered by a 31cc strimmer engine- quite lightweight though, and the kids who will be driving it dont exactly weigh a lot..

in the background you can see our other project- the shell eco challenge petrol car, basically the same thing but even lighter with an areodynamic shell and a 4stroke engine instead of a 2 stroke...

Haven't had an offer quite what i was after for 360, seems a shame to leave it in my wardrobe so Ive had a look at it...

Going to bite the bullet and fork out for a scorpion XXL and a 6s outrage lipo to give the drive a bit more boost so i can use the magnet, after testing at the gadgetshow live with the new disc motor and disc combination properly 360 has now gone from being slightly silly to drive to totaly un-controllable, so for competition fights id either have to run half throttle or put the magnet in it.. dont see much point in having a weapon like that and not being able to use it to its maximum potential

I'll get pictures and stuff when i make some progress

Hopefully it will be done in time for the uk's so i can smash beauty again.

Small update-

During the gadgetshow live demo's i had to smash up a few printers.. someone left the catridge in and my fancy disc paintjob got totaled.. that and the plastic from the printer shreded the lacure.. so i spent about an hour polishing the disc back to how it used to be,

Not sure if i should get tom to airbrush me another spiral on or not?

before;

after the elbow grease;

I've also ordered a 6s lipo pack to run the drive of, as an upgrade from the 4s it used to run on... going to try the magnet out again and see if it has enough power now, ive got a feeling it will be ok aslong as the ground clearance is ok. Ill order the scorpion xxl soon.

The lipo i ordered;

I have 400g to play with, so hopefully the bigger lipo and the magnet should still be within the weight limit. Im sure it will be.

Looks better without spiral. Put a sausage on the disk so one ends near the center of the disk and the other end towards the outside of the disk and spin it, record it and upload vid to youtube.
