thats going to be a real pain in the proverbial to turn, mabey shorten it and add curved edges/not so flat, as a spinner will just rip into those flat edges, also make it look cooler

looking great so far though!

oh bugger, my feather is mostly flat edges

Just to give you it's size at this time, it's 21 inches long, 15 inches wide and 9cm tall.

It may have a lot of air space but think about it, it will be difficult for robots with axes or crushers to get at my components.

I was never going to leave my edges flat, I'm going to put them in a angle, somewhat like sloped armor.

And with all the components and armor (5mm Aluminium Plate) in place, it weighs 11.7kg.

its twice as long as mine!!

no inuendo intended

my feather is only 32cm long (not inc claws) but all the parts weigh around 13 kg

if you can gut it all in the weight limit then go for it, but i would bring the wheels closer together if you can because that will be a nightmare to turn
