I have just built a new flea called Deflea as in to rid the arena of fleas.
It is basically a scaled down version of Defiant .
Weight......75.2gms
Power.......2x 12v precision micro drive motorgearboxes need to upgrade to something faster.
Controller..OptionB63 board with AR6300 receiver
Battery......145mah lipo
Weapon.....0.25mm steel scoop front and back.
Notes........Very slow at the moment.
Normal way up:

The servo I have for LD has packed in YET AGAIN, so I was hoping to use a Spektrum servo like Pete uses in Variant's lifter, but I was wondering what it runs on ?

Also, I was going to use an Option A board for LD because it may save me the weight to have the servo installed

Andrew it might well be if only for sentimental reasons as it is only a new servo horn on one side and glue the balsa chassis back together. At the moment I have 10 Ants and that would make two fleas plus three minisumo's and a micromouse wallfollower so I don't really need any more.
Dave the spec for the spektrum SPMS75 servo says 3.2 - 6.0 V.
Variant uses two, one for each lifting tine.
