Well more than 1amp mate. My recomendation would be to get a small sla say 2.2amps or so and use that to run it.

The secondone does not auto shut off.

There are ones available from argos which can go up to 300psi but can be set to go to say 100psi and stop automatically.

In my opinion its not safe to run any spinner (offensive or defensive) without a battlebox, It can catch an edge on anything and throw its self or another object which could be dangerous. Also what happends if the disc seperates from the shaft?

Peter I think your being a bit harsh there. Maybe your taking me up wrong. I am not objecting to your design or use of aluminium I am just asking if I can use it to as a chassis.

Edit: I have removed my comment as I do not want to further damage antweights due to comments of some builders.

Something is inversly proportional when something increases the other decreases. So S1*V1=S2*V2 S1= Quoted Speed V1= Origional Voltage (4.8) S2= New Speed V2= New Voltage. However you have not given the origional speed of teh servo so I cannot calculate but I will assume a speed of 0.13 for argument...

Not entirely true their simon. 1mole of gas occupies 22.4L at S.t.p. (standard temperature and pressure) However we rarely see S.t.p. At Room temperature and standard pressure you see 24L for one mole. So lets assume that pressure is constant (which it is not immediately making the calculation inval...

The thing is in rules 2.3 iirc we removed the "Monocorque is defined as armour" rule but it was put back in, in rules 3. Since my chassis is 2mm and it can technically be defined as armour could this then be said to be illegal. I could of course get around this on a technicality buy puttin...

Not to contradict you gary but I believe the last time this came up it was said (but not set in stone) that you would get something like 187.5g (1/2way between 150 and 225). But its very unlikely to ever happen.
