Thank you for making this video! The idea of hand grinding splines... wow. I agree with you that the belt has no defense. So, yea, that needs something to prevent it from being rendered useless after 1 hit. If you must stick with the saw blade design with a "lifter", you should consider a lifter that has at least 2 parallel lifters, perhaps like a fork lift, or maybe upside U shaped (joined at the ends) for more rigidity. I suspect, that 1 lifter, tilts the enemy bots more than it "pulls it up" into the blade., whereas a parallel lifter might give you better leverage. The Locked Rotor Amps / Stalled Amps of a motor tend to be 6 to 10 times more than full load (100% RPM). So, one reason why the controller may be dying might be related to the Amperes being drawn with rapid "on" / "off" cycling. Because that's basically like several 6 to 10 time Max Current hits in a row.

@@marcfruchtman9473 . "Flyback protection"? A term I've never heard before. Granted my electronics schooling is 40 years old. I think I understand what you are talking about. When you power any wire coil it builds a magnetic field of energy. (Solenoid or motor winding). Take away that feed to it, the collapsing magnetic field around the coil wants to dump current/voltage to somewhere. You don't want it to go back into the driving circuitry. So you add components to direct it away from there. In the case of solenoids, it's simple, a diode/rectifier to ground. DC motors I can see being tricky because it's not a one way deal like solenoids. Did I get it right?

I had NO idea pcbway does cnc work... thats amazing. I almost regret buying a 10 foot CNC now.....almost.... except its fekking cool. What might be nice is for you to have a way for your saw to lock and push with the lifting arm instead of just having it lift and stay in position, because thats now how saws are designed to work. They need some force to move them into material. Another addition would be some thin armor for the belt/motor, just something to give it protection against glancing hits from other saws or things. Nothing amazing, even just a chunk of throwaway 3d printed plastic would work, just something to keep an instant cut to it from destroying it.

2 suggestions for the winch: 1. If you're going to use a speed controller, ramp up the speed rather than go full-force. That arcing you see when applying the battery can cause a lot of stress to the electronics. 2. Use a pair of contactors instead of a speed controller. These are built to handle the intense load and are pretty simple to set up. They're not cheap, though I'm guessing a speed controller that can handle all those amps isn't so cheap either.

Beast almost got through the 3mm steel armour around Pot Heads wheels. I was trying to take the saw out by 'punching' it with the same armour :)

You should try 3d printing jigs to line up the holes correctly. And also learn GD&T to know the correct clearances and how to communicate that to the manufacturer.

With the right funding hopefully I’ll be joining the sportsman class next year as well as my ant and planned beetle

Id say the only thing to change is make the lifter and the saw come together rather than apart. Lifting a robot if you can't flip it or cut it isn't all too helpful, but being able to lift them then cut into them is another story
This combat robot is made from a PCB (and defies physics)
