Re: New antweight fighter

the motor can draws about 20amps so it's a 20 amp ESC. Didn't know how long the battery would last at such a high draw, so stuck a big battery in it to be sure.

Re: New antweight fighter

Just about fits in with the flipper up.

Just hope my later bots look half as nice as Void 9.0.

Just checked the sign up sheet and my name doesn't appear next to my bot Flippertygibbit. Sorry if I filled out the form wrong.

Re: Team Shakey Robotics - Ant parts for sale!

I'll have the lighter ones. The ducted fan bot they're for will have enclosed wheels so they won't have to be as strong.

Re: New antweight fighter

Usually use it for prop replicas that don't need to have much structual strength so set it to about 25%. Printing the next chassis at 100% though, should be tough enough this time.
