That looks like an idea...

A lemon Robo...

Or an Orange Might Work...

Clockwork Orange anyone?

Wow...

That's one way I didn't think of to close the jaws!

I was going to make the jaws like joey described, but I can't for work out how to pull/push the rod!

I double posted by accident...

Oops...

The only trouble I'm having is working out a way to pull the mechanism to close the jaws...

K'nex Wheels work well...

They are grippy, cheap, light and remarkably robust! Plus they come in several sizes...

Thanks a lot for the input!

While on holiday, I came up with an idea!

A claw! Mixed with pure engine power, to move the other bots out the way!

Gear Motors...

Yes he drives like a tank... But my controller "works" with the layout!

I used to play Warhammer...

The rest of my gaming group stopped...

That's why I started this hobby, it's Cheaper and more fun!

Plus some of my different mates are trying it!

Thanks for the answers.

So basically, A weapon is not that important, but help and a drill is bad.

Okay... I'm going to have rethink my design...


A spinner does sound tempting though, maybe fan blades, to add up-thrust to attacks and hopefully flip enemies....

Or not...
