Yeah, it is the old one :P

We go to practically all of the RR/RL/RC events, I don't think we can manage any more! Might think more about AW events when we've got more free weekends, i.e. heavy is finished with nothing to fix after every event

Yeah, its a shame we all have to prioritise events based on different weight catagories. Ants are easier for me because A) I have a minor chance of winning and B) I can get them on a train. lol

Introducing new antweight robot Gust

A four wheel drive pusher made from a 3D printed chassis. The wheels are made from lego tyres and 3D printed hubs. The speed controller is an Option D2 board and the receiver is an Orange RX from Hobbyking. It is powered by 2 sets of 3 70mAh lipo cells run in parallel, giving a total voltage of 7.4v and a capacity of 210mAh. It is switched on and off using a JST connector link held in a 3D printed cradle. It is armoured in HDPE and 1mm Titanium.

How did you bend your scoop in that fashion ? I want to have scoops like that on Bulletproof but I am concerned about getting it right.
