Quantum (Battlebots) WIP 2
Over the last couple of weeks I've been building and testing the prototype robot, while simultaneously developing the final CAD design in Studio.
Main changes from the previous WIP:
- Reduced the compressor from 3 to 2 pumps, as there was too much friction in the system
- Firmed up the frame supporting the front wheels, to prevent sag
- Addition of front and wheel armour
- Tweaks to the head design to improve strength and match the real thing
- A smaller piston for the self-righter, which I still need to design
The drive and weapon are running pretty sweet now, which I'm very happy with. I've taken a bunch of video along the way, which I hope to put together and release once everything's finished.
