My Ant for MMM14:

Black Carbon V2

Image
Image
Pusher, and how it looks like, the strongest Ant pusher which exists at the moment (and this with much underweight).
Motors: 4x1:35 Gearmotors
Wheels: XMODS slicks (soft) which I will make still more gripiere than now (you never can have enought grip :D ) 2wheels per motor....
Controller: 2 Micro Ant FR
receiver: Ar500
Lipo: 180mha 2s1p 25C Turnigy (has the size of 130mha 2s1p fullriver)
Amour: 1mm Carbone (extreme strong plane Carbon) And 0,75 soft carbon on the upside
Weight: 80g 8)
Specials: under ground light (but a little bit too dark :/ )
And there is no position in which you could set the Ant at the wall. It alway slides on his wheels and can drive away :D
Think that was all :D

It looks not as good as Black Carbon V1 or Pushmaster, but i think it looks ok :D

Gemma's final robot for the AWS.

Four Wheel Drive Square With A Bear On Top

Image

Not really a "square" I guess but the weapon works....well, I say works...."moves" would probably be a better description.

Should we phonetically call it "Fwuduswabot?

Also, does the bear have a name? Should it be wearing a nametag, given antweight rules?

No phonetics! If she'd wanted to call it "Fwuduswabot" she would have! lol. It rolls off the tongue pretty easily I think :-).
And it weighs 150g on the nose so I can't give the bear a name tag, so he best just be called "bear"

Built from a load of scrap parts, this one will be driven by Ceri in the AWS.

Must be a miracle, I'm done before midnight on the night before the event. Clockwise from top left is Randar, Cosmos, Warhorses (Phobos & Deimos) & Duff.

New antweights for AWS 40.

Gemma's Totorobot

and Death Becomes Bear
Image

And mine. I'm Jim Morrison, I'm Dead turned out lighter than anticipated, so will fight alongside the red bug.

I also have May Nothing But Happiness Come Through Your Door, a track-driven robot with a flipper fighting alongside another bug, but no picture yet, will post when I get one. And you're all already aware of Kellog's Corn Snake.

Finally, I converted my 6-legged Hexbug into something fun, which will be driven at the event by Will's girlfriend Orla.

Yes, I already regret the names.

All the robots are excellent,but I especially love the artwork on Gemma's.
Totoro is one of my favourite characters,along with the cat bus of course. :D
BTW:"You're Lionel Richie, Stop Coming To My House!" FTW!
