Hey, I really like the look of your inlaid red in your clear top plate. What material is the top plate? How do you get such a neat inlay? I assume you CNC the profile, but how do you do the fill? Thanks!

I'm in debilitating pain due to an allergy to neproxin I didn't know I had. Thank you for this video, it's helping a lot. I love your channel, the way you break down your bots into approachable concepts, the way you show your thinking, and also your dry humour. It's definetely a nice break from the 'attention attack' style most videos are these days, while still being very enriching.

Where did you get your weapon motor? I'm struggling to find motors that small that have a shaft greater than 2mm in diameter.

@BrokenLinkRobotics 22 күн бұрын

They don't come with that shaft stock. I press out the bearings and add a long dead shaft. Bearings are in the eggbeater

Love the new bot but scale just keeps being my favorite

@DrVonHugenstein 24 күн бұрын

I just spent about 15 minutes doing maths in my head. Im missing a force vector somewhere because I cant convince myself it matters whether you are spinning up for down with a vertical spinner. Either you get pushed into the ground or they do. Infact since your mass in consentrated on the spinner my brain is certain that spinning down would be the situation with better torque on impact.

@DrVonHugenstein 24 күн бұрын

Hang on i didnt account for linear movement vs rotation movement of the opposition bot, which is too much for mental maths

Another amazing design! Do you think it's possible to make a hub motor without cutting off the magenta ring? I'm trying to find a good way of stabilizing a horizontal spinner direct drive system, and the hub motor you made is inspiring, but I don't have a whole metal shop at my disposal.

@BrokenLinkRobotics 24 күн бұрын

@josstrigaming you can cut the motor up with a hacksaw and file, all my other robots with modified motors were done that way including Scale. Mill was just a nicety

I may have missed it in the video, but are you using any sort of encoder of software travel limit on the arm motor, or actuating it forward and backwards and letting it stall? I love the look of the continuous curves and shapes on this bot, tunned out looking really cool!

@BrokenLinkRobotics 24 күн бұрын

@RECombatRobotics no encoder or codez on this machine, just stalls at the limits like the ants and feather. Does have a rubbery endstop though.

The weapon motor wires on Subdivide A and B really flail around. It looks like a couple times they were thrown right into your opponent's weapon. In the fight against antweight Business Time if the wires were zip-tied to the weapon arm it might have saved them. Subdivide is a really neat design, and I love your choice of using a gyro to control the weapon arm. That just looks like so much fun!

You're a talented builder but I do have my concerns that carbon fiber would be too brittle as an external part due to its brittleness. The nylon was probably the way to go from the outset. Anyway, good video I've been waiting impatiently for more content from you!! 🙂🙂

Holy crap the beetleweight Business Time is vicious. Glad you were at least able to find redemption against the antweight version. That weapon arm is wild. You could almost run it as a pure hammer with no spinner and be successful. Also, it's kinda wild to me that there's about a 10x difference in weight between the Australian Beetle and Ant weight classes. Is there any interest in something like the US Antweight class?

@BrokenLinkRobotics 25 күн бұрын

@neutronium9542 we've discussed it, but it hits a middle ground that both ants and beetles satisfy in their own way. Would probably just become beetle weapons bolted to ant drivetrians.

@TlalocTemporal 25 күн бұрын

I wonder if the arm breakage was _caused_ by having two arms. With one arm the arm is free to flex and bounce, but with two arms it would be much more rigid and the lateral force would be focused into a bending force at the arm's weakest point. It basically makes a parallelogram linkage which wants to snap the arms right at the joints. A cross brace would probably help.
