Looking good! I would say more bolts will probably be needed as you guys progress onwards.

Hmmm good point. You wouldn't be able to self-right either way so it doesn't cost you anything. I like it

Liking the new snappy. Servo under a full body length lifter it looks like?

Last I remember, he was just borrowing other people's bots to run at events. You've come a long way in a short time, Somebody. I stole Alex's (SKBT/Shish-ka-bot) robot in February 2016. Got into Battlebots in Feb 2018. It's been a little surreal. Mike was there, Alex also helped on us and SubZero, Kyle (zipdragon64) was with Bale Spear. Little reunion 49

Linear actuators. Charles Guan's deWut kit. RS-775 motor into a Banebots Speed 57 or a Versaplanetary v2. Just gotta do the math to get your gearing set and make sure you have the grunt to lift a bot. Otherwise the smoke comes out.
Riobotz Guide will have some formulas for you to do this math. 53
Site News and Feedback / Re: Avalanche may return« on: June 15, 2018, 11:48:45 PM »I say let's give him one last shot!I wonder how many last chances he's been given. The phrase probably means nothing to him anymore.I mean like a week ago he was picking fights on facebook with people the same way he always has. He is who he is. If ya want him around, your choice, but I don't think you gain much.This is the perfect argument as to why he shouldn't come back, I couldn't agree with it more. He's not gonna change, he is who he is. Everyone that thinks he's improved clearly can't see someone faking their attitude/behaviour. What he says feels so unnatural. For example (from the ARC Dicksword): Thanks for some backup. New guys: give him a chance! Old guys: he's had 10 years of chances! And I don't even come here ever besides to talk about battlebots but like still. Thanks but no thanks. The rest of us are excellent at not getting permabanned in the first place. It's like getting back with your ex for a third time because it'll be somehow different this time. 54
Robots Showcase / Re: Somebody is going to build a robot« on: June 15, 2018, 11:43:19 PM »Wanted to come up and meet you guys when you came to MA last Friday. The spot you guys were at is about an hour from me. Unfortunately I had just gotten pretty sick. Let me know ahead of time next time if you want and I can put something out on discord for all the other New England bros. Can do. There's a chance that the robot will be at New York Maker Faire this fall but that is far away and costs basically all of the dollars. It was something crazy like $45 admission last year. I figure at some point during the season we'll lug it to Boston again, maybe on more than a day or two's notice. This time was a bit of a rush job I'll admit. 55

Linear actuators can be used, and a motor with a significant amount of gear reduction has been used as well.
