Well done, nice write up, looks like you had a great time at the event! I am intrigued by what the next machine is going to be, I'll be sure to keep an eye out for that.
As you may know, Robodojo occurred once again on Sunday and Wedgeley attended. This time, there were no major changes to the machine, we just patched up the minor damage from the last event and...

I doubt it. So long as the battery meets the rules, you should be OK. Sounds like they may have changed how the batteries are made but otherwise they should be OK. Got a link handy as to what you are...
Hi everyone, might be a noob question. But does anyone know the difference between the nano tech and nano tech plus batteries? Want to get a 3300mah 4s battery with XT90 connector, but the original...
