After Ant-lion's destruction at the FW Smash, I think its time for a whole new line-up of ants:

Cypher: 4WD Invertable Wedge.

Scourge: 2WD Invertable Drum.

Fell: 2WD Pneumatic Flipper.

Hopefully I'll have them all done by AWS14.

I,m just about to start on Cypher. 2 park-fly aircraft motors and gearboxes for drive, Li-Poly batteries, polycarb and ali armour. Should be good. Also, my Dad's got a new ant, unnamed as yet, but its got Naro Hp's for drive, a lifting scoop and is made out of Balsa, ali and polycarb.

Yeah, thats it.

I've just found this website. They're based in Swindon and sell some of the sozbots motors and gearboxes, plus antweight size speed controllers. Just go to:

Don't make them too wide though. Ant-lion has 25mm wide, dycem-covered wheels, driven by Naro HP's, and it struggles to turn on anything other than full speed.

This site looks great for antweight-sized electronics kits:

There's some nice ECS's, mixers and RC switches on there.
