Problems
- Electrical system was the thing that eventually killed us
- The esc we planned on using was too big to use once we assembled it
- The replacement esc we used wasn't rated to handle the current that our motor drew
- Lack of heat shrink and having to rely on electrical tape caused shorts
- Difficult to assemble
- Lack of space inside for wires
Good aspects
- Sturdy structure, took solid strikes and wasn't torn apart
- Armor was really good at deflecting and taking minor blows
- Hard hitting weapon
- Invertablity
Changes/Improvements
- Possible weight reduction on stucture
- Focus more on electrical systems
