Colsonbot was awesome. It was able to bounce off other bots like Shrederator would. I loved it when they added a hex key on the top of it to act as a way to point forwards, it reminded me of Megabyte.

new beetle. it may or may not be ready for franklin, gotta see how early i can get access to the machines at college. if not i can hook up nocturne with a bigger motor and run it instead (ive decided that was the issue the whole time)

landshark is going to be getting a complete rebuild for next year (including an active weapon!) details to come soon.

also in the works is a second antweight armed with your basic dustpan/saw arm. my goal is to cause a smaller version of the gloomy lipo fire

Looking god so far. Was the shoutout (is that the right word to use?) to 259 intentional?

I hope so, it's exactly what I thought when I looked at it.

Yep the homage to 259 is intentional. I was brainstorming a few nights ago and it just hit me.

and then the tinymixer shorted out thanks to a faulty solder joint

the curse is real

I think you might have pissed off a witch doctor somewhere.
Also, it would be nice to know how/where the joint failed. You do heat-shrink every connection, right?

I know exactly why the joint failed, it's because the wire was broken in half when i soldered it and I didnt notice.

I dont have any heatshrink but I wrap all my joints in electrical tape.
