Brushless motors

Hello, I’ve found with the brushless motor I use that if I put the motor from zero to full throttle it will stall. Then I have to bring the throttle back to zero which will allow the motor to start again. However if I raise the throttle slowly it will get to full power but it will take anywhere up t...

Re: AgoBros team, new member on the platform

I asked this question in another thread. The sporting thing to do is fix it best you can. Replacing a full chassis is like using a brand new robot. If you’ve been smashed to pieces. You’ve most likely lost! I like to think of it like an F1 race. You can replace wheels, wings and front end but if you...

Re: Newbie Antweight build Miniflea

Welcome! Quiet often Chinese sellers have no idea what rpm\gear ratio these motors are and just lie. I have bought many advertised as 500rpm, some have been as low as 10rpm! Annoying... This is my trusted source of n20s. The seller also has other listings or RPM. They have always been correct and ch...

Re: a quote

I have some designs already set up, all I have to do is alter 3 dimensions. I only print in PLA though I’m afraid. As long as they don’t get hit by a spinner they work great 😅.I will PM you later tonight. With these wheel you have to make your own silicone tyres. I can either show you how to do it. ...

Re: Repairs

Ah ok, I suppose a full new chassis is a brand new robot. Not a repaired robot.

I’ll bring wheels, glue, batteries, motors and a spare flipper panel. I hope I don’t go out in the first round 😂.

Thanks guys.

Repairs

I am hopefully attending my first antweight competition soon. I am on unsure on many things 😂, however the main question I have is about repairs. Can I replace any part of the robot between battles? For example my flimsy PLA chassis gets completely buckled by a spinner but I still won the battle. Co...
