    As for the minotaur drive pod, I'll throw in a guess of 23 pounds. I had been thinking 13 initially but with 0 actual experience of working with mechanical parts of that size I've been scared off by the range others are guessing in!

    @camclark7046 ปีที่แล้ว

    My guess is 15 kilograms for Minotaur's wheel and drive. Thank you so much for creating these builder blog episodes. Seeing behind-the-scenes and learning about the people who create these destructive machines makes the whole experience so much more fulfilling. We were so hoping to be at the taping in Vegas this year, but life got in the way. The blog videos will have to suffice. Keep up the good work and all the best to Skorpios ove the next 2 weeks.

    *And for the quiz:* I heard the Minotaur's drive was around *28 pounds,* but it could be lighter now. Nevertheless, I'm sticking on *28 pounds.*

    Starchild: That's not Huge, that's massive! Always interesting to see how teams allocate weight
    And speaking of weight ... 34lbs for the wheel and motor assembly

    An off-topic reminder to the ladies of BattleBots: October is Breast Awareness Month, girls, so it's a good time to check that everything's all right.🙂
    I've no idea what the Minotaur drive component weighs, but at my last mammogram (all clear - phew!) the nurse told me that my own, er, components weigh a total of 11 kg, which is a tad over 24 lbs.
    Oh, my aching back. 😞

    Well those motors themselves don't weigh that much to my knowledge. The wheel and hub would be the heavy part and Minotaur has a lot of weight into that weapon and chasis. 23.1 lbs would be my guess....and the fact that Aaron can just casually lift up BETA makes me wonder what its weight is without the weapon and armor....btw how are the pit floors this year? Still electrifying?!?? :D ALSO FINALLY HEAVYWEIGHT STARCHILD IN THE ?FLESH?!!! Dang I want to go to Vegas now

Definitely not just a huge clone.
