working RC model at beetleweight scale of Deadlock robot wars robot by mark_m

Last crawled date: 3 years ago

This is an early RC mdoel of our heavyweight robot Deadlock, designed to test the operating principle. Unusually, it has two totally separrate electrical systems to enable the movement without wires getting in the way. After this iteration we figured out how to acheive the movement whilst only having one electrical system.
