Here's what's left of Interstellar Overdrive











To do:
Finish 30lber for FI/Moto '10
Find gearbox solution (stockpile what's left of the gb42s, another commercial solution or create my own)
Build new chassis. After two events the things just generally tweaked.
Test the Firecracker as a possible victor883 replacement http://www.robotpower.com/products/firecracker/

Both bots before BBots

Hi Mike

Welcome to the forum

Richard

Welcome to the forum.
Im stangshcky12 on RFL forum lol

If anyone happens to have them, I'm still looking for video of my matches against Death Fe, eXecutor, Bob2, Senioritis and Exterminator. All but the exterminator fight happened in the smaller arenas.

is that a s28 series mag in your bar spinner? and you're running it at 36V? DAMN.

30lber runs off two 6 cell A123 packs, one for drive and one for the weapon. It is the s28-150 for the weapon through a 2:1 right angle gearbox from Team Whyachi.

Edit: These are what I'm using for the drive- http://www.robotmarketplace.com/products/0-TD-RCM515.html

For anyone that missed it at the event:

Good job

I wonder why he got under your wedge??? If he haden't, you could have pushed him around all day.

till he lost a drive motor

I'm pretty sure the roof hits in that match were a primary cause of the lost gearbox. Floor wasn't very flat, which helped them get under me, and once they were under once, the bend they put in the wedge made it easier to get under again.

Mr. SD is still waiting for the drive speed controllers, I've started on other electrical bits though.

On another note, if anyone has or knows where to get video of IO's matches against Bob2 and Senioritis, let me know.

mike, i just gave you a team update page btw. i'm not sure why i didn't before...

This counts as showing off and not progress-

I haven't gotten ours yet!
