I keep forgetting to post this, might as well do it now. I know a lot of you will think this is a troll but it isn't, this is really happening. My computer crashed again and it took all my Robot Wars stuff, all my videos, my replicas, everything, with it. So I'm cancelling this. I hope you guys can understand.

Wedgebots are only not allowed in the 30lb sportsman class, which has a very specific set of rules. You can ask SKBT or MikeNCR about those, they've built several Sportman class bots.

Florida does have a ton of robot competitions, but sadly none I can go to up here in CT. :P

I'd say a pneumatic flipper is not a good idea for your first bot. I would definitely start with something more simple.

First of all how old are you? Pneumatics are serious business and I wouldn't advise anyone who doesn't know what they're doing using them, you could get seriously hurt.

Have you done any research into what parts you're going to use, what materials and your overall layout? I'd advise getting some graph paper, a ruler and a pencil and sketching out your design in full size. That's what I've done for both of my robots, and even though the second one hasn't been built yet the first one came out perfectly. Do you know where you can get pneumatics that small, what's involved in running them and how you're going to make it? Do you have proper tools?

The sketch and the way you're going "3lb pneumatic flipper, piece of cake" makes me very very nervous that you have no idea what the forces involved are.

Also, where in the US are you? Maybe I'll run into you at an event sometime, I'm over on the east coast.

Really one 1000mAh lipo should be all you need, especially for a pneumatic flipper, since the drive motors are the only electrically powered parts.

You in the US or UK? Don't think it means much but it'll help us recommend you some parts you can easily get in your country.

I'd think motors and a strong frame should get priority, both the US and UK have some very nasty beetleweight spinners.

Oh please god no Badnik! That profile pic is one of the scariest things I have ever seen in my childhood. And that is only number 3 on my list of the scariest courage the cowardly dog episodes!

I had trouble sleeping for days because of that crap.

Instead of mounting one long extender sideways, mount a 20cm extender sideways and attach more 20cms to that. You should have more spaces to put razors.

Also, turning the motors around makes them stick out further, which should give you enough leverage to self right.
