3cm wide wheels, problem gustav?

Oh,yeah,well I bet it doesn't have a power light!!!!!

Now you have done it just ordered wheels for the new combatant (only 20mm wide) and a modified defiant chassis and wheels (not tracks) all in Purple.

Is it still going to be cheese based Jim?

[earthwormjim]

Go purple,or go home!!
Nice one Peter!

No Dave.Cheese it,has oficially been renamed "Omelette du Fromage"...



Although,to be honest,the covering is scrambled egg,but it looked alot better than the pictures of omelettes I could find!!

New robot will have a German WW1 theme!

[Remote-Controlled Dave]

Focker? lol. You have to build a robot called Jim'll Fix It at some point.

[earthwormjim]

Very close Dave!!
No,not that!

Maybe not Jim'll fix it,more like Jim'll break it!

And here is a little test run...

Not finished yet,but you get the idea!
New servo seems pretty good.I wasnt sure it would be strong enough (1.85kg/cm),but it is fine.Very fast too (0.06 ms),just what I was looking for.

Very nice indeed! Loving the gloss red. Should be very effective judging by what I've seen of Omlette du fromage Very swish arena also

Thanks Andrew.
Yeah,I liked the way that "Omelette Du Fromage" worked at the SAC,so thought I'd scale it up.
No way to really tell how it will work (or not work!),until the next AWS.
Any updates from the AJW Robotics stable????
Cheers Jim.

It's wonderfully made as usual Jim. I have got my money on you to win the next one btw, so no pressure

There's two things I'd love to see you attempt. I'd love to see another spinny thing. And I'd love to see you attempt a walker! Or maybe a combination of the two. Any interest in trying one? Give you that 4th team member?
