Re: Introducing ProtoBot!
Seems like your version 2 bot could definitely be competitive. Fantastic design too. My bot also had a lot of polycarbonate panels (1.5mm) and as others have mentioned I recommend just getting good scissors for them. I managed to get the shapes I wanted just fine, just slightly achey hand as consque...

Re: Knappster's monstrosities!
I love the design of this. Especially the blue wheel guards! It's fantastic to see so many unique looking bots in the forums lately! It would be great to see a drum spinner on this bot.

Re: Bandit's Bot-Building Blog
I'm not familiar with that bot? Is that pre-reboot Battlebots? I've only seen the two new series.

Re: Bandit's Bot-Building Blog
Thanks again guys. The panels are a pretty snug fit and pretty much stay on their own however I used epoxy glue to fix them in place. Most other glues corrode polycarbonate over time. The servo was the one Rory lists as the recommended servo on the NanoTwo fact sheet. It's a Turnigy. I can't remembe...
