To dispose of it safely you can connect a load to any un-damaged cells to drain them down to zero - a ~100 ohm resistor, or an old drive motor or similar. Once all the cells are close to 0V they won’t be anywhere near as much of a fire risk as when charged, and you can recycle what’s left of the battery safely.

You can use salt water in a pinch too but then you get a glass of lipo juice to deal with…

Flip. It’s like, 15g over weight limit. Might go back to old weapon setup for ORCS ☹

Could cut down on your armour, the standard ONI files have ridiculously heavy duty armour that isnt necessary

Not really time for that now, will think about that after ORCS. Old weapon assembly is on and I’m just waiting for the lids to finish then it’s done. Printer will be running long shift overnight as well for spares lol.

Fair enough, still think you could get a hell of alot of weight out of it with lighter print settings rather than a redesign
