update on drum spinner:

well, going to whitwick has given me some more enthusiasm to get back to building! im now picking upwhere i left off with the drum spinner, and im gonna finish it this tiime for sure, no more new progects for a while *cry*

anyway a few pics of parts iv got:

basicly 2x drills, 2x blue wheels, 1x 4mm mild steel shell, 1x team thants weapn controller, 1x big ass motor, 2x 12v sla's, 1x hdpe(?) or nylon rod (jamie?)

im not too sure about 2 things:

1: the rod is qute big and weights 1.5kg, and its very strong, would i get away with using it as a drum? or should i go metal?

2: the motor, itson the large side and havig it means mounting it outside ( ) of the robot, im thinking about using 2x speed 900's but iv heard good things about brushless setups, but as always im doing it on the cheap :P
