6th December - Roaming Robots - Wigan - The FINAL.

Just like to say thanks to Roaming Robots for another great event we really enjoyed it!

Well Done to John & Terrorhurtz for winning

It turns out that the driver chip came off of the Wotty, we opened the case to find it lying at the bottom.

Also thanks to Clive for the extra armour we definately needed it.

Finally well done to Matt for winning the feathers with Heatwave (even if I'll never hear the last of it :) )

Thanks Again

Will

P.S- Alex Marler, we have your Tx charger still, PM me and we'll sort it out.

As always a big thanks to Jonno and all the crew for their hard work getting the show going under even more stressful conditions than usual, you are appreciated by all the community.
Well done to the Thz team you did a great job and deserved to win on the day.

For those who are interested on how my ramshackle robots did read on
Saint,
I lost the competition fight got pushed into the pit; before I could get out Tilly Evo was pushed on top. So that was the end of that dash for glory. :uhoh:
The saint won the two white board fights Jason (Team Bud) drove the best of those fights. :mrgreen:
The big hammer did nothing, except make people smile. :cry:

Seraphim did ok for it€™s first time out with the new robot; it climbed out of the pit several times even when Little Hitter had other plans!
The only trouble was the battery pack has a bad joint, in the second to last fight we had intermittent power but still won! But in the competition fight I was driving and it lasted 5 seconds and the power just died and would not come back, so my luck in competition fights has migrated to all weight classes! :shock:

Pilgrim that robot went with no problems at all I think the public like to see it going and I was missing it not blocking up the garage, glad to get it home for Christmas. :mrgreen:

@ Will
