Designed next beetle, its going to be a mini nightmare style with 1 big disc and the 2 wheels out of the side

Had a few hours spare on the mill this afternoon and managed to do the disc its cut from a D2 tool steel offcut

Very nice

What wheels are they in the background ? I presumme those are Fingertech motors beside them ?

[Kenny]

The wheels are the 35mm OD banebots from technobots and the motors are 12v 1000rpm gearbox motors from ebay

[harry hills]

thats a damn fine machine you have there!

You guys are churning out beetleweights at a ridiculous rate! Won't be long before you have enough to fill a competition, let alone a battle :shock:
And I think 'excessively shiny robots' should be added to the Prohibited Weapons category

In all seriousness though, it looks great. Can't wait to see it churning stuff up.
