since we're so close to the event, and my soldering is not the best, to put it lightly, i'm going to drill some holes and try and shorten some wires to get her down to 150g! thanks :)

one week left until the event, and we're a little overweight, but that should be fine - gonna drill some holes and hope i get away with it, and also need to add the hole for the switch, but it's going well, especially since i'm in revision crunch time :P

are there any plans to livestream the event like AWS59? super excited! :)

Solderburn v2 has 600rpms, and normally you would never use 12vs in an ant - iirc the voltage of the batteries almost everyone uses are 7.4V!

Solderburn v2 officially drives, which means I get to go to AWS60! It's still mostly wiring spaghetti (Spaghettiburn anyone?) but it actually does things so i'm pretty stoked about that. Google Drive video attached below! https://drive.google.com/file/d/1lJF7noE3R-jTaWE5OP5smZJ6AjS5Fcvw/view?usp=sha...

Solderburn v2 just officially completed the first drive test, which means my dad agrees to train tickets, so I'm going to be able to make it! Will fill out relevant forms soon

I'm pretty much all ready to get the drive working, just need to plug the LiPo in! Haven't soldered anything though, just in case I have to swap wires around, which is probably gonna happen - I'm just hoping I don't have another unexplainable error like last time. https://i.imgur.com/2DgT0qb.jpg Als...

Yeah, luckily I have spares now!

Updated the image links so they work now!

Drilled both new bodies yesterday evening because some of the drill holes hadn’t printed properly and screwed them both on (black self-tapping M2s from Amazon), and mounted the drive motors. https://i.imgur.com/xjuP5Sj.jpg https://i.imgur.com/sntnAYK.jpg While reusing the mounts from the original So...
