@Badnik: Why would I nickname it after my dad? :P
Anyway, people, here is probably my last update for this year!! O.O
I'll start robot by robot :P
Hunter Reloaded:
Yes I went with Reloaded :P
Anyway, im sure some of you know what design I may be going after, but last night I had an ipiphany
Since I want to try and make HR strong enough to take on the spinners at the UK FW Champs, I had one idea that I could do to use their power against them.
La Machine
Yep, basically, a scoop attachment at the front, then when the fight starts, just run at the opponent, and hopefully flip them out. Simples.
And hopefully the rounded design of the scoop should add some strengh behind it, which will be important if my opponent reaches full speed.
Then I can jus run at them, hopefully topple them a bit and let physics take its toll lol :P
As for weapon without scoop, Im adding spike to the front (just if I want a little drive around in the arena during a fight lol :P)
Or (depending on weight) a little spinning drum at the front
(bit like tornado lol)
Alejandro:
Nearly done - all I pretty much need to do is get the new drill motor in (or find a drill motor that wont drain all of the current when firing :/ )
I also want to strenghen the front wedge up by adding some steel support underneath.
I also have an idea for a fairly cool paint job :)
Artemis:
Well, shes now got to go to D3.
The new one is planned to be a bit like Chaos 2, so that should hopefully be effective lol :P
Crime Scene:
I will hopefully make a start soon.
Basically, im planning a bot like RC Doorstop (Steel Conflict I think :S)
PropellANT:
Well, atm he's sitting in a freezing cold garage lol :P
He's ready for the new year :D
TeeTh:
He's made a start.
ATM we have a frame with motors and crusher servo.
Dunno when he'll be finished but i'll be sure to keep you posted lol :P
Im quite excited about this ant, should be interesting :)
And, depending on how things go - robot and cost wise, I do have an idea for a MW
An pnumatic axebot called HeadShot :P
But I first have 4 FWs and an AW to finish off :P
Should be fun when the MW, 4 FWs and 2 AWs are done - getting everything in the car will be like a game of Tetris more than ever hehe :P
Anyway, theres the update, and hopefully the next one will be in 2011! :D
-Wham
