You can buy pre made packs at your required voltage, don't use over 6 volts without using a bec though or you will blow your reciever
The ESCs already have a BEC.

The bigger it is the harder it hits right?
Yes, and a drum of that size will be pretty killer...but, the drum will be 24 inches in diameter, bigger than most robots in their entirety. Hell, if you cut it in half, it could be a bot on its own! You're confusing size for mass, a smaller, but thicker drum, with a small, powerful motor, would by far more preferable. Also, from what I heard from Ray from Team Hard Core, the Perm 132 is an awful motor for combat. Think of an E-tek motor or a Lynch motor.

I see what you guys mean.
I never knew about botbitz, I'll have to go there more often.
What I meant by "don't have the budget for the motors" I meant the price of the motors. I think I will drop the sides thickness to 1/8 inch. I'm not using the sides to hold the screws, I'm using kitbots nut strips.
Yeah, that wedge thickness is massive over kill. So I'm dropping to 1/16 thick. I'm keeping the Garolite thickness, though.
...You can tell that I studied big robots more than small ones.

I think I'm going to drop the silver sparks in my robot for now, WAY to much for right now, they eat up almost half of my budget. Does four 50:1 gold sparks sound good?
I also will drop the wheel size to 2 1/4 inches. Armor will still be 3/4 inch UWMH, and top and bottom will be 1/16 inch thick garolite. The wedge will now also be 1/8 thick hardened chrome-moly.
Should I move the wheels into my bot? Or should I keep the inside. I'm not sure, because I want to go to ComBots in October.
Also, should I drop the Original Sin hinged wedge, or go with a static wedge and risk other wedges get under me?

Weapon seems to be a bit grindy. One tooth or not, that thing is so going to struggle to get a bite on the other guy.

If you don't want one of those, could I have it? It would look good with my Purity Fist.

Avoid sharp edges, that blade will be spinning very fast, and with angled sides, will have nothing to bite on.

Just get a cheap soldering iron. That's all you need to use the ESCs.

Please don't use servos for drive, you'll be literally driven around in circles by faster bots. A pair of tiny escs from finger tech only weigh 4.5 grams each, and a pair of gold sparks(also from finger tech) weigh 28 grams each. That adds to about 65 grams. If that's too heavy for you, this gear motor would work fine: http://www.robotcombat.com/products/0-GM11A.html

The next BOTM will be MLP
i hate ponies... and i am not even making bot for this, unless it's not "my little pony"
Oh you hate ponies? You must be so unique.
Of course it won't be ponies, ACAMS hates ponies.
Nah, he loves ponies, especially with mashed potatoes.
