This is our first test run of our minibot.

LOBSTER??

Needless to say: Fast as hell.

[Tom Line]

How much time did it take to reattach the part that went flying

Where's the fun in that?

I also believe that is the battery in the lower left corner.

[mwtidd]

another puzzle...

what makes it pop halfway up....?

[anthonyttu]

nice

[JB987]

Custom wheel/rollers? So much for idea that 4" wheels are necessary, huh?

[Cyberphil]

Hmm. I do not believe this. Put the boat anchor, uhh.... I mean battery on it, then see how fast it goes up (or if it goes up at all).

And I see you not wearing your safety glasses!

Sad thing is, this could be legit knowing Winnovation.

This is very true. I have seen some pretty crazy things come out of 1625 (Including animations).

Actually, now that I think about it, I would not be surprised if Winnovation's minibot climbed this fast!

I would, assuming the weight of 2 motors, a battery, and some small bits of aluminum, physics and theory say its going to take at least 2 seconds. this seems to be breaking the laws of physics. I will make a assumption, that there is no battery on board in this video.

HEY! Is that the height you are planning on deploying your minibot??? Because if not, then I think you are under a false illusion that your minibot goes up in 1.75 seconds. Thanks

Can you please refer to the rule that requires the battery to be attached to the minibot?

Does there even have to be one?
