i gotta admit it seems like it has poor control and looks to heavy and big to be an antweight







-Great band, hopefully more up soon.

The soda can combo is really nice. I like this small drum.

Yeah, this looks pretty big to me, for an AW. I've seen antweights with the fourth of the volume of this bot.

its a us (1 lb) antweight and the only reason it looks like it has poor control is because its in a 4x4 box and i didn't want to slam into the walls and how is it  a violation of health and safety when you battle is a lexan fight box

Hey, it's a working bot, which is more than most people on this forum can say they have.

If you ask me it looks pretty awesome.

I like it too, ZD64.  How does it do against other bots... (any vids?)
Cool and potent looking.
Input is appreciated. :)

I would assume america because he i s following an amaerican system of weight (1lb).

The bot looks nice. I've though of building a robot as of recently, I just don't really have the funds to start in such an expensive hobby right now.


For once the mods did something right

I have a real, real working bot (I mean he does a job). It's a Roomba, he cleans our house. :biggrin:
And I have a working R2D2, he doesn't do a job, but he brings me a can of beer sometimes. :lol:

Oh,btw: The bot is cool. Well done Zipdragon!
