Description!
MTF2 ( Mr.T,Foo 2) is Team RCKM's first good antweight. It has been made from the parts of Mr.T,Foo after I decided that Mr.T,Foo was not good enough for competition. MTF2 supports (or will support) a rugged plastic box as a chassis compared to the heavy and weak Erector Set chassis that Mr.T,Foo had, Two awesome foam wheels, a great power indicator(watch the vid), and a two ounce saw blade!(biggest one for antweights at RM).
