Another week, another robot (it's been pointed out to me that the title of this thread couldn't be more appropriate :roll: )

This one has no name yet, although tempted to call it something along the lines of "Gigantic death spinner" due to it's immense size (next to Lionel for comparison)

a full 12g of fighting fury!

Surprisingly stable even with the blade at full power, though goes flying as soon as they touch anything. I'm planning to swap the blades onto a different drive setup, and rebuild this one with a 1 inch dremel saw on the front for my micro Dead Metal, however decided to throw this together for the open day tomorrow..

Yup, even I was kinda surprised it came out that low; I was aiming for around 25g :P I can cluster it with smidge for a 17 gram cluster!

Hehe, still got a few more robots to make for this cluster first :P

One question; I don't currently have a 1 cell Lipo charger. What have other people used?

I would have thought your charger would recognise 1 cell, both of mine do and one is a bit dated.
