How to build a combat robot pt.2

[MrConnor791]

Where Do u Get the motors from

[cooldude6617]

@MrConnor791 agros cordless drills are the best

[coolspeedbot]

what are the grey things u put on the wheel after u fitted it to the motor and how does it keep the wheel in place

[MartSard]

@coolspeedbot Bolt and washers to keep the wheel from coming off.

[coolspeedbot]

@MartSard thanks

[dsfghfdstfnyjmyfyfgb]

why dont u just use small lawnmower wheels :3

[TheHazzabigun]

@dsfghfdstfnyjmyfyfgb becuse they have very little grip =)

[goldfish047]

Does it matter how many volts the drillmotors have?plz respond.

[MartSard]

@goldfish047 Not really, but both motors should have the same working voltage.

[Bocomarine]

and a gehto lathe really lol.... again a Dremmel would have done the job or a jig saw idk why your using a wood saw on plastic lol....

[MartSard]

@Bocomarine Because if you are a random guy who has not built anything before, you usually dont have a dremel and a jig saw, or any power tools, thats why! Usually people have a simple wood saw and a drill, thats all!(wood saw cuts hdpe really well too) I could have milled out the parts on cnc and turned the wheels and such on lathe, but then the tutorial would have been quite useless!

[justiceplay]

where could i get the wheel hubs from

[MartSard]

@justiceplay Wheels just screw onto the drill shaft! Works quite well!

[justiceplay]

@MartSard oh thats effective... one other question, how do i put in a powerful battery without over loading the reciever

and what were you using the servos for and what do the micro switches do

[MartSard]

@justiceplay The servos are moving the micro switches, micro switches control the drillmotors!

[justiceplay]

@MartSard oh cool thanks ill rewatch that part of the video and try make sense of that part.... do you know of any other ways to use a large battery without killing the reciever

[justiceplay]

@MartSard thank you that makes so much more sense now... so the copper wire was just to keep the servos together

[MartSard]

@justiceplay Actually the copper wire has current running trough it too! :)

[justiceplay]

@MartSard damn it im lost again.... could you make a video of a close up explaining how to add a big battery and all its connections and components :)

[MartSard]

@justiceplay ive been thinking about it, maybe ill make one soon.

[TheFluffyVanquisher]

what type of engine is that?

[nl3rd2]

haha, epic lathe

[TheMrMechanic]

haha thats such a good idea for a lathe! thank you soo much!!

[X7D379]

what did you put around ur tires and where did u get it

[MartSard]

@X7D379 I used the same plastic as used on the body and you can just use rubber from old bicycle tire.

[morcharuke]

Srry spelling error.... How big are the mounts

[MartSard]

@morcharuke Its best just to measure ur drillmotors! =D

[morcharuke]

@martstard how big at the mounts that you all ready made

[TheRoboteer]

awsom robot i might just build this

[ToastFingers]

What Voltage are the motors?

[MartSard]

@ToastFingers Im running thes on 3s (11.1 v) lipo!

[frchack09]

Great Vids but from which drills are the motors from?

[MartSard]

@frchack09 Almost all cheap drills have this kind of motors!

[sikkepossu]

That's great how you made your own wheels. Good idea.

[MartSard]

@sikkepossu Thanks, I dont see the need to buy things, if i can make them myself! =)

[Adrenilanjunkies]

again, very nice :)

[MartSard]

@Adrenilanjunkies thanks!
