my crew:

fleaweight, Black Stabbath, wedgey sort of clampy thing using a scalpal blade. the name is the most interesting aspect of this robot. its underweight, underpowered and for the most part, underarmoured. 1mm hpde. if i have time, i'll straighten the front out and add a 0.5mm ti strip on the front.

Antweights.
first up is Blitzkreig Bot, 4wd pusher using a sabertooth 5a and a 4 cell 160mah lipo battery along with 4 shore 30 banebots wheels.
i think it has good pushing power, but i have nothing to compare it to, how many drill motors can a normal antweight push? or what weight can most of them push? is dead on 150g withough any kind of scoop or propper armour, its 1mm polycarb tape and alu angle atm. going to try and squeeze on a scoop, thats why the front end looks a tad crap and unfinished.

Killed in the face, which has kind of been bodged together :oops: its better than it was 2 days ago, which Joey, Jim and Dave W will know isn't saying very much. armour is 6mm thick hdpe and 1mm hpde. only running a 2 cell 160mah battery due to weight. does not drive very well due to the broken, half dead sabertooth i had to resort to using as everthing else was in use or broke and i couldn't really aford anything better.

Problem Gustav?
is being devolved back into how it was last AWS due to time, and the new frames being too heavy or too weak. ah well it did very well last time so here's hoping it doesn't compleatly fail :)

not atall hopeful as my team is just slightly a teensy bit compleate rubbish this time, i only have myself to blame. bit boring and bland this AWS. next one i'll do it propperly i promise.

Some more new things, going to learn how to drive this. Hopefully it should be a decent robot and could win a fight or two

Wow that's fast! Good idea to use those 35mm Banebots wheels.
