Cherubim

[George_TeamZog]

I don't think that you should abandon a project as good as Cherub! Maybe if you tried revamping it or something similar.

[craig_colliass]

I have decided to do some work on it over the Christmas break.
New lifting arms,
new Wotty,
different radio
And a few other mods to try and make it a bit more reliable,
It still won't win much but should last the fight.
Hope to keep you posted

Awesome! i love cherub!

[brandon_nichols]

Yeah, I like Cherubim because it sort of reminds me of Dreadnaught. Not all powerful but still good looking with those lifting forks.

[craig_colliass]

Have been working on the new lifting forks hope to get pictures up soon,
looks like i will have to change the 30mm shaft too!

[craig_colliass]

One of the new lifting arms they are made of 10mm Hardox type steel I could not drill them!!!
They have been bent to a similar profile to the old ones note the large lug on the top of the
new design this is to help the robot move when flipped upside down as they will keep the front higher
so the wheels at the back can touch the ground.

Sorry to hijack your thread Craig, but I thought you'd like to see this but you don't read the antweight section:


I call it 'Saint Jimmy'

[craig_colliass]

Looking very nice Dave
Looking forward to seeing it go at one of the shows.
welcome to the world of not knowing which way is
Forward

Fitted new shaft and the new lifting arms, sorted out the welding to fix the armour.
the relays that control the lifter are going to be changed for a speed controller, I just like the idea!!
If all goes well should be ready for testing at Barnsley
