You must have missed them I'm afraid; all 12 sold out in 70 minutes! Working on another 10 now..

The new NanoTwo V3s are now available on Nuts and Bots: https://nutsandbots.co.uk/product/nanotwov3dualesc/ I've still got parts for another 15 V2s in stock, so I'll be making those when I get time just to use up the parts, and they'll be listed on Alex's store at a reduced price: https://nutsandbot...

I've finished the first of the production NanoTwo V3s. About 20% smaller than the V2s, they support DSMX as well as DSM2, and include a bind plug and a servo plug for 7.2V servos to be driven directly. Hopefully be on sale in the next week or so.

Apparently it's fleaweights first so you should be ok if you're there by 11

Car died on the way but managed to get to a lift. Will be there around 10 though so any repairs I've offered ahead of time may be a little tight

That looks like a short on the motor side somehow. Its an easy fix. Bring it to Antfreeze and i'll lend you one for the day while I repair yours, though I may be able to swap the chip out before the event starts. I'll be the one with too many robots and an orange furry waistcoat

Because I am terrible at actually selling these things (as anyone who has tried to buy one off me recently will know) I've got Alex to do it for me!

NanoTwos are now supplied here: https://nutsandbots.co.uk/product/nanotwodualesc/

I won't be supplying them directly any more.

Most ESCs in the higher weight classes and many smaller brushless ESCs use an external crystal oscillator to avoid this drift, but small brushed ESCs tend to save the space and cost of a crystal, and just use the internal oscillator built into the chip, which is very susceptible to temperature chang...

Exeter works for me! But might be a bit far away for everyone else

I've got a friend at Southampton uni who's interested in coming and watching for a bit.. What's happening with numbers? Is it strictly X number of people allowed in the room or what?
