Inertia XL and Heatwave are all done ready for the event. Heatwave has a new flipper arm and seems to be working better than ever. Just waiting for the paint to dry on Inertia.

The only downside is that there will be no Aftershock at this event- the others have taken too long to get ready and there is so much work left to do that there just isn't enough time. I'll look at throwing together some form of replacement but it probably won't get done in time

Really looking forward to this one now

Got drum done, just got rest of robot to build now, 2 nights to do it. Plenty of time right?

[typhoon_driver]

very nice tom, whats the final weight of the drum? What you running it off and what rpm you aiming for?

slightly off the topic, but I ordered 2 100mm blue wheels with nut insert over 2 weeks ago and they havent come yet.
I sent james an e-mail about them and he hasnt replied. Just wondering if they are made and when they will come?

Think you probably ordered them at exactly the wrong time. I know the guys at Robochallenge have been preparing for the gadget show live for the last two weeks and been working early and late all the way through that. Zach's working with them and last time i spoke to him he had finished at 1am, had five hours sleep and then been back out to carry on. Take down finishes next Tuesday and I'm sure James will be in touch soon after that.

Probably not what you want to hear but still within the 28days I think they quote

Drums 1.5 kg. Using a speed 900 with 2.5:1 reduction on 6s lipo. With the time I have it's nearly impossible to get the robot done. Love leaving it untill the last minute.

[Laser]

thanks, I gues that i'll just have to wait

[xtreme]

Forgot to mention my lipos from century arrived this morning. 3 weeks and the ones from flightpower haven't even left china yet. Took century less than 24 hours. Definately going to use them again
