flipper bot specs

[mattsdragons]

what sorts of parts would be used for a HP flipper?

i know weight is an issue due to the high weight of the flipper system but what sorts of motors, batteries and armour etc would be normally used?

[mattsdragons]

Would speed 900's with appropriate gear boxes be too heavy for a flipper?

[Laser]

They would work, even drill motors would

[mattsdragons]

That's what I was thinking, if you ran drill motors on something like 18v lipos thepoor keeps power up and weight down

how much do HP systems cost on average?

[maddox10]

There is no set price. It's mostly custom work. And weight is very influential on the pricetag.
And there ain't to many people who can/will make them and can do the paperwork to comply to the FRA rules.

are you one of the few that can and will make them?

[maddox10]

I think I'll refrain from answering that question.
