    TS3 did very well and gave me quite a surprise. On the other hand, my weapon will actually work as advertised next year so the results may be different. I hope you get TS3 rebuilt and improved for next year so we can have more matches.

    Quick rule question:

    I am looking at mounting a GoPro type camera to the top of Mr Mangle. Its sure to put the total weight over the limit by 200 grams or more - is it possible to get a special dispensation for the camera as long as the bot passes the weigh-in without the camera?

    Because the foreign competitors are an unknown really, who is likely to make the final 10 out of the robots we think should be in this event ? Nice to get some speculation going.
    That's a neat idea Dave, let's see...
    I reckon it'll be:
    Beauty 8
    Beauty 2
    Explosion
    Little Crusher
    722
    Mr Mangle
    Hannibalito 3
    Little Hitter 4
    Binky
    Rango

    I want Flow to be in there but I just don't think it'll happen :P

    Ah, I wasn't sure if 722 was just a new chassis or not, Mr Mangle, I assume it was just working out bugs from the old one

    722 is a totally new and improved version of 720. Dave has ironed out many of the small flaws in 720 and changed the exterior armour for this sloped arrangement. 722 gets the titanium drum from 720 and 720 gets its old aluminium drum back.

    Same frame, drive motors, battery, and most other parts. New beater, new (and MUCH better!) weapon ESC and maybe new weapon motor depending on testing between now and April. At the last championships, I stuffed up the ESC programming so that the beater hardly spun up, an embarrassing newbie mistake. Apart from that, Mr Mangle needed absolutely zero repairs between matches.
