Finally able to reveal the build for KOB2 built and driven with @PulsarRW .The goal with Hounds was to build the most competitive dual clusterbot the sport has seen, without losing cool points. Each 54kg machine packs a 17kg 10,000rpm drum on a tiny 4WD platform.

Our first set of wheels looked great, but unfortunately the supplier used very low grip rubber. So we're casting our own from Vytaflex60 to get better performance. We machined two nylon end plates which slide into 150mm ID plastic piping, making a low cost reusable mould.

Robots are basically clever bits of metal joined together in clever ways. @PulsarRW designed this part, we're not sure where it goes. #robot #robotcombat #noinstructions #clevercookie #battlebots #kingofbots #omgrobots #soon #readytorumble #gettingready
