No Murphy's Law?

sadly not, as Jack said Massacre is my entry this year.

I think Boner will do well, probably in the top 3 at least.

some modern 150g uk antweights.

http://robotwars101.org/forum/ this might be a helpful place.

my line up:
Blitzkreig Bot
4cell lipo powering 4 cheapy ebay knock off gearmotors. slightly fire damaged sabertooth esc :P


unnamed undercutter:



ML



i would be taking the new heavyweight, but the person taking it pulled out at the last minuete (so no Steel avenger or Mr nasty at this event) :(
i was hoping it could trundle round for a few seconds before being oblitorated

you have a great oportunity to beat me across 3 weightclasses this time, don't cock it up :laughing

Tip: although it may seem obvious, buy a good set of batteries, i had Major problems with ML until i finally got the pack it runs now, best 70 quid i ever spent on that robot. Proof that a really cack robot with decent batteries can keep going, look at ML at the champs, okay over excited and overall bad driving, but it kept going without a charge.

if you are gonna build a heavy, by all means do it, but be bloody sensible about it.

lightest robot i have made was 48g, 9g servos and a single lipo cell.

but yeah, using gearmotors and a 20g servo will get you to about 110-120g

6mm hdpe plastic, 6mm polycarb 1mm ti.
as thick as you can get realy. and mount it well!
carbon fibre does not make good armour. it just adds coolness

componant shop do chargers aswell, they are not hard to find. just make sure you get the right adapter, most of the chargers have tamiya conceters on, so you need a  tamyia to futaba/hitec/jr adapter

with 7 cm wheels, servos are fine for a beginer.
you can always speedhack if you feel like it, you will have no pusing power
understand the fact you want it controlable, good to practice with, then buy motors.

hang on, i could have sworn you live in the uk? and are building a 150g ant?

don't bother with standard size servos, too heavy.
look for a metal gear servo, about 20-25g with about 3kg of torque, will run you £20 at most, more likely £15.

i want one! the only thing that worries me would be my inability to fly it.
i think its probably because i have alot of dead animal parts around my house, my mother's side of the family are obsessed with them, so i am not that bothered, i think its rather sweet.

why don't you just put all the parts into a shape or shell that is designed for combat, so you won't have too much damage to fix?
