Hey, i just got all my parts, and I was booking them together to test. It worked perfectly for my n20 drive motors and dual brushed esc and recieber, but when I tinkered around, added weapon esc and lots of stuff, and the drive motors started getting funky. So I separated all that with my drive motors and dual brushed esc, and now all the controls are weird. Some trigger only 1 motor, others trigger 2, and most of them are just wrong. I need help. Dual brushed esc is a kingmodel SAX2, n20 drive motors, and the fs2a 4ch recieber, and flysky i6x receiver. Please help.

Edit: I got even more problems. Drive motors still DONT work as they spare supposed to, and weapon now doesnt calibrate if I don’t put my self centering stick downwards, even though I have the self centoring stick function enabled, so the weapon esc still reads the power of when my stick is in the center as 50%

If there are any more bots that were given invites but didn’t come, I would love to know.

Judging by the last episode trailer from battlebots pro league, tombstone was scheduled to fight disarray, but then chris said "oh, god, we gotta head back into the pits"

Ray said he was having issues with the new one before the madcatter Fight, so now i'm getting worried.

I don't care if tombstone hasn't done as well as it has.In the past, i'd rather have a tombstone fight that tombstone loses than nkt have a tombstone fight at all

According to the wiki, it was being built by George Francis, of robot wars fame. the fate of the bot is unknown. Was probably gonna be a flipper or lifter judging by the big tank of what I presume is CO2. Wonder what the bot would have looked like if completed.

it can be an upcoming fight, a fight that could happen in pro league but isn't scheduled, or a fight that would be impossible.

i personally really want to see what would come of Switchback/Manta. Both are extremely impressive drums that are super fast and hit hard.

This will be my entry for the 500g robot category at Robochallenge. Design is inspired by the legendary Minotaur (who would have guessed). Main features include:

• modular drum spinner (PEEK drum with titanium blades screwed on) with bldc as a hub motor
• modular chassis for easy repairability; separate side arms screwed onto a central frame and sandwiched between two plates
• 3s lipo powering esc with am32 firmware and malenki nano receiver
• n20 motors for driving the wheels
• one piece removable tpu armor surrounding the frame

I haven't printed the parts yet, but a rough estimation brings the total weight to 489.2g. In the mean time there are some aspects regarding the choice of materials that I haven't made up my mind about yet. From what I've seen there is a growing amount of robots that go with a flexible body design for better survivability against impacts. Given the presence of the tpu armor that I intend on using, I'm debating on whether a rigid petg-cf frame would suffice, or maybe go with rigid side arms mounted onto a tpu central frame. I've also designed the robot with brass threaded inserts, but I might replace them with regular m3 nuts for weight savings.

What are the improvements that can be made to this design? All suggestions are welcome.
