OK, here's the plan.

Vertical spinner with 2 cell Lipo. SD200s for drive.

Should be fairly basic but with a pretty hefty 8cm, 4 pronged disk which I already have. Theoretical top speed of 27750rpm but, as you've probably already seen in a different thread, this is unlikely.

Hopefully finished for the southern antweight challenge.

Also, If the components are light enough, I may scale down the disk and make a fleaweight.

Hello, i'm done with making a test robot with tracks. The final version will be made soon. It's speed controllers are actually servo boards, and it's going to be called: Landmaster. Also mino notes: Antupus is still in work.

Here's a video and a picture of how it looks like:

I'm suprised, from what I remember it was a nightmare to control!

After I put the Spektrum reciever in it was a lot easier, the Sozbots controller didn't seem to have a great deal of interference protection so it was more susceptible than usual I think.

Anyone got a UK based link where I can buy tracks like that? I know they're Tamiya ones, could Google it, but its easier to ask on here.
