It's all plug and play. Connect the PWM wires to the receiver and go.
Nice. Can you give me a link to where I could buy these parts, or at least their names?

If you have some legos lying around you could buy some power functions and make robots like in Lego Robot Wars
That's already been discussed. https://gametechmods.com/forums/index.php/topic,6627.0.html
TRB sounds like he just wants to build some robots that him and his friends can fight with, nothing competitive. Plus Hard Bot sounded like he wanted to modify the power functions, put some cardboard armor on it and enter into a competition.
Hard Bot? I see no Hard Bot in this thread? On another note, how do I set it up, I would like to know in advance. What connects to what, and how do I script the thing?

it is a 2 stick transmitter, one for drive, the other for a weapon, a button or swich can eaisliy added, like this done to my dx5e:
the transmitter is the bit you hold, the rx picks up the signal
So all the movement on the robot is tied to one stick? Are there any other alternatives, where the robot has 2 sticks for movement and a button/switch for a weapon?

yes, the 2.4ghz kit is the transmitter and reciver.
rc cars and toys are sod all use im afraid
Transmitter being the actual controller, right? And does it have a button for the weapon?

Why not get your friend to take you there or something?
None of my friends do robot evens, but they enjoy the models as I do. I found a dead Killalot RC model in a cupboard, along with the controller. I got excited, as using the killalot controller could knock off £25 off one of the bots. Unfortunately, I realised that the reciever is in the killalot model. Still, it has four buttons, which is useful. And that '2.4 GHz kit' is the controller, right?

you wont need a soldering iron for this robot.
why wont you fight in competitions??
where do you live?
1. But how do I connect the various wires? 2. Because I'm happy battleing them with friends at home, and my dad CBA to take me to robot events, and even then I wouldn't be competetive. =P 3. Leicestershire (UK)

first off, dont evern bother with cardboard or wood, dont you dare!! get a sheet of polycarbonate off ebay for like £4 (can be cut with scissors)
for drive get a pair of cheap £2.50 servos of giant cod ( or get them modded or speed hacked from me) and a basic 2.4ghz kit which is like £26 now, batterys are about £5 or £6 depending, and the weapon servo will be from £5-10.
build an ant, not something you can't fight
Yeah, cardboard is too weak, thinking of using wood, we have plenty nicely cut pieces in our attic. May also use polycarb, will consult with father this weekend. And I will want to fight it/them, just in my own home, against each other. No need to make it competition ready, I will never fight in one, unfortunately. And that '2.4 GHz kit' is the controller, right? Costs so far!

would you like you robots to be flipped and collapse with cardboard armour, or comparibly strong with wood armour?
I have some pretty thick and strong cardboard. ;D And I have little tools, a hacksaw, mabey... A drill or two, will buy a soldering gun... Also, what should I use for the flipper, a high torque servo?

I'm thinking of building two small flippetr to play around with, I have no intentions of going into competitions with them, so they don't really need proper armour.

I have been thinking about making a pair of robots from cardboard, a pair of flipper, little more than the size of an xbox cotroller, if possible. I was wondering what the cost would be, what tools I would need and where to get the parts. Not for any competition, just to mess around with. Like a cheap version of AntyB, if you have ever seen that, but a more generic flipper design.

This is an interesting discussionthat happened to be off topic:
Half the people on here are obviously just double accounts.
Scrap = Virus bomb
Nar = Joeblo
Ty4er = Conraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
What I find ironic is that I would have added Scorpion=Enigma were I the one making that list.
What you all don't realize is that I'm the only member on here. You are all just my alternate personalities. I spend all day on here arguing with myself.
But that would mean part of you is garvin :O
And please sonny, if I was to multi-account, i would act the complete opposite of me.
Part of me is also a gender confused furry, and part of me is YOU.
Not mentioning any names, except it begins with a J and ends with onzu95

Soccer sucks. 
But that's only my opinion.
You mean football?
Us English made it, we get to name it. 
I see GF93 has taught you well.
In other news, I'm back from the dentist, where I had a scale and polish. I would describe it as "vigorous".
Not at all, I've always that view.
