        Im just so proud that i had to share...< http://www.robotconflict.com/nercarenav2_1.shtml > Yes, its an arena for combat robots. ------------------  Posted by CatKnight on Oct. 07 2001,16:15

        And CatKnight sinks to new levels of stupidity...Looks schweet Wolfie. I would SO love to build a robot, but have neither the time nor the money. Maybe in the future, I'm in RI so it's probably not that big of a trip up to the "Northeast".

        that looks pretty damn cool... it's robot fightin' time.how much did it cost? 
  Posted by Wolfguard on Oct. 08 2001,11:02 
        CK.  You are a moron.chmod-The arena cost us about 5k in parts and about 250 hours of labor. miNus-Your in RI, we are in Philly. Not that bad a trip. We get people from as far as CA to come play. ------------------  Posted by CatKnight on Oct. 08 2001,14:48 
        hey now it was an honest mistake

        At least he didn't edit it to something else and try to play it off like it never happened...

        what happened was I immidiately clicked on the link, then clicked reply (so it would load while I was reading the link) looked at it, realized it was a robot arena, and then came back to reply that wolfguard would get a kick out of that.

        Damn these misunderstandings!Catknight isn't an idiot. I'll make my damn stand here, with bottle of SoCo in hand! I share many of his beliefs, and I understand his "Second year of college" ways. Let him grow up and don't attack him. He's the most senior poster here (by number... i beat him on maturity... and others beat me). Attacking him here is like hitting him for a double post.  Posted by chmod on Oct. 09 2001,09:30

        Actually, I wasn't taking a shot at CK with my last post. I was showing slate that he was wrong... He was thinking that chmod posted that AFTER CK edited his post. I'm just quick like that.

        I only had the SoCo in hand to finish off the bottle, thus make more room in my freezer.  Really... plus I wanted it out of my life.  It pains me too.

        ok who cares about what CK thinks...he's a twat we all know that get over it.that fucking kicks ass WG. i was working on some designs before coming to uni. got some madass ideas and they were plausible but when it came to uni no one else there was interested so i canned the idea which was fucking annoying cos i managed to find a way to get a hypnodisk type weapon to spin at aprrox 2.5 times the speed and torque of a single direct drive system. i'll leave you to figure out how i did it. hint: a-level physics comes in handy ------------------  Posted by Wolfguard on Oct. 10 2001,19:15 
        quote: Hypnodisk is a spinner so we have to think about this. get motors that spin at 2x the speed at normal voltage. Over volt by a factor of 2. use a 2:1 reduction back to the weapon. Use 2 magmotors at 36V and gear them up. Use an averox brushless motor at 36V and gear down (spins at 10k rpm at 36v) thats 3 ways and im not even trying yet.   ------------------  |
