    Would you buy a Whopper ?

    Would you buy a whopper? ,not the one at Burger King. I am refering to the hopper/warp type that Patron God of Pirates is attempting to build . I know there is alot of talk about smaller warps , but I think that Patron God of Pirates is on the right track . Why have two sets of batteries, and two motors to do the job that one could do ?

    Would you buy a hopper/warp combo , if it was the size and weight of a HaloB, could feed just as fast, and only around $140-$150 ?

        Whoa there! I never said I was trying to build it, I just proposed it. Good luck to everyone trying to throw together a proto. I would set the price in the $300 range. I know that is expensive, but think about the price of buying a Warp and a Halo.

        Hmmm... That gives me a second name idea "The Walo" (Way-Low). Helps describe what it does for your profile.

          and it wouldnt be much more expensive than a warp...it only uses one 2 9 volts and one motor.

                not only would i buy a whopper, i would also pay for the beta versions and beta test it, assuming id get full tech support, and the actual product at release (id send back the beta if you wanted it). ive found a great joy in betaing things, because its one thing to brag about having something someone else doesnt im so evil

                    Yeah, what halB said. I'd be thrilled to be a part of such a project.

                          how bout an xtra wapr and revv... can i just piss those away? im already workin on it... you could build one off my design too. order any hopper shell u want from anywhere from 6-30 dollars, order a warp... a heat pen (7 bucks at home depot), a propeller prong (you can get one from wicked air sports for bout 10 bucks) and your good to go. so until you know what your talkin about please do me a favor and shut up. I grow stupider just talking to you.
