What do you think? These are the best names I could think of:

Atomic Bomb

Bot Rocket

They both are flippers

Looking good patdied, will you get a chance to compete?

Probably not, The compitions are too far away. There used to be one really close to where I live called robot riots but they stopped hosting it.

I might convince some friends to make a antweight so we could compete with each other. If they don't want to I can't force them.

They're American style antweights aint they? Too heavy for our little playground.

I wouldn't mind fighting an slight overweight robot, just not in a serious competition.

If I remove the metal and change to plastic or cardboard it would probably make UK weight.

Anto3 (version 5 million or something)
30x 85x 72mm
130g
2LiPo cells
2x Planetary gearhead motors
2x Scorpion controllers (the little single channel ones)
1mm Titanium shell, 3 lots of 3 planels bolted together (not finished yet)

as far as i'm aware thats legal but someone can tell me if i'm wrong some pics are up on www.flickr.com/photos/tanto818/ of the rough version i've made tonight in about an hour

Works amazingly well so far still has weight to lose in the receiver going to a spektrum, smaller batteries, lighter wheels.
