Re: Team Shock's Beetleweights
Good hits require driving But still cool, how heavy is your disc(s)

Re: Team Shock's Beetleweights
The 10mm thick disc is just over 500g according to Autodesk and the 6mm version is around 300g so they should give a decent hit

Re: Team Shock's Beetleweights
After 2 weeks of trying to chase it up I have been told that all of my waterjet parts will be delivered tomorrow. Hopefully it will be before I leave to go on holiday so I may be able to post an update tomorrow

Re: Team Shock's Beetleweights
Nice one Will. Where did you get your waterjetting done and were they a good price?
Re: Team Shock's Beetleweights
I used EMSEA, price was a bit steep though and delivery was 2 weeks late but I believe that was due to the courier
Re: Team Shock's Beetleweights
Hey Will, looking great!
Just out of interest, what motors are you using? I have a design in mind but as I've never attempted a beetleweight I'm slightly hesitant to invest in something that's not up to the job

Thanks Jack.
I'm using the 25mm OD pololu gear motors for this one as I had a couple left over from my uni project. Need some combat testing but should do the job. Running them on 3s lipo with botbitz ESCs.
