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.
I am gutted I wasn't there for this one to see your bot in action, I had Azriel running for this and all. :( Anyway, well done on your first event!

The rules say a LiPo battery must be fitted with a fuse that is rated below the burst discharge rating of the battery (rule 7.8.3 of the current 2018 rules).
