Surprisingly all done on time, early in fact, how queer for me. I don't see myself doing particularly well. If i can win a couple fights i'll be more than happy and I think that i'll have more of a chance with fleaweights than before because.. well they are both controllable and both actually can go forward which is always a plus for a robot. Antweights are all running and underweight. The wedge is a little underpowered now as my only 3 cell battery has decided to kill itself (or I killed it, pfft details) so I've had to drop it down to 2 cell, ah well such is life.
Bringing some beetleweights with me, if that's okay. Maybes inspire some BW builds.
cheers

Trying my hand at a wedge-flipper for a change.. I can see why they are popular :)
This is for Shane to drive next AWS hopefully.

Hey people, got a question.

I basically need to make an rc switch for an ant weight. I just need to turn a motor on when I flick a switch on the TX, no actual speed control is necessary it just needs to run the motor full speed one direction when I need it. Needs to be as small and light as possible, and run off a 2s lipo.

Any ideas?

Harry.

I've got some small, single channel controllers that I think are single direction. I'll test that they work and if so, I'll send one with the mixer you were after.
