your round i think
....Im in a lot of trouble. Well, best I can do is just try and beat them.
Im more concerned about my 3rd melee than the 1st one due to Hornets unreliability issues (no offence to Gary), for saying which I am liable to get slaughtered :P
its ok 4 u was going to mkae some panels 4 B3 but carnt see the point LOL
o i for got no weight ahhhh
Well it looks like a very short weekend for DB5. Better bring enough spares to build up a second robot.
wow seems to be a lets take the pish outta gary/hornet kinda day :P Anyone else wanna add anything?
For sale 2 very 2nd hand and battered robots.For details see Clive Saturday afternoon.:uhoh:
Grant can you please change the name of Pink Flipper to now read: Looney Toon.
What happened to pain in the asp and pillow tourque?
Scared they would be drawn against the Toon Army:mrgreen:
Clive any pics or specs of looney toon?
Glad i took your advice about the big shiny spinny thing Gary.
o you went for a disc? thought it was gonna be a flipper?
it should be the best fw uk champs with 3 full body spinner were there was just 1
Two spinners in my first fight, and then none in either of the other two? Any chance of running my first fight third so I can at least compete in all of them? lol.
Oh, and how come Japanese Fighting Tortoise has suddenly become a turtle?

1.lf3
2.looney toon
3.aftershock
4.tiny toon
5.ploughbot evo
6.explosion
7.miss scopion
8.alpha
9.savage
10.hornet

Sorry wifey just off out to buy its makeup,and you know what women are like about being seen without their warpaint.:wink:
shane think your missing some lol
looks like its going to be fun !!
How long are the fights, 3 or 5 minutes?
Been doing some more testing this morning.... blown some more nicads today !! :blush:
Need some A123s.... thats the problem with putting heavyweight kit in a feather weight !
Just make sure youve got a fire extinguisher, and a nice clear path to the fire exit please !!
Looking forward to it !
John
Jonno,
dont worry, with the number of times ive blown batteries Grant and James sort that one out as standard :rofl:
lol :)
how have i missed out john
Who will be the seeds?
I know the top 4 finished off like this last year
1. Beauty
2. Alpha MX
3. LH2
4. Wedgie
But I have seen that LH2 wont be there next week so will either LF3 or LS3 fill in for it?
I also have another question, will there be any plug sockets available near the arena so I can plug my camcorder in? (The battery doesnt work when the Camcorder is unplugged, it only works when plugged in, so if there will be, that would be great)
Cheers
Liam
doubt there will be spare plugs for anyone around the arena, i cant see there being enough space for more then one camera - 40 robots plus there teams trying to watch the fights around the arena its going to be a squash
james/grant can you sort out an area for drivers/the teams fighting to stand please
Wedgie v Cyberon v Tiny Toon.
Ill do the flipper for you if you want Tom.:rofl:
No support for captain scarlet hey lol. probably the best track record for a robot ever. entered 2 uk champs and only lost in one fight :)
details of drivers standing will be posted very soon.
its alive !! without blowing batteries !!
Finally all sorted !! theres going to be one big bang at least !!! :proud:
Someone should tell the physicists in Geneva that, if they want to find the Higgs boson they should just observe the Stripper/Drumroll collision carefully. :proud:
Explosion Vs Hornet 3 Vs Beauty 3 should be a good fight, 2 of the best flippers and one of the best spinners :)
Aftershock is now ready to run, it has interchangeable flipper arms to suit the opponent and some new spinner protection seeing as it will be fighting Dizzy Tilly and DB5.
We tested the flipper out yesterday on Blitz so this is how our first fight could look (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NXtgWdQxP1Ihttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NXtgWdQxP1I)
Where is Venom James?
Im hoping to enter venom, but got lots to do so dont know if it will be finished in time. if not captain scarlet it is.
Well we are all in the work shop making the frames for the hardox floor. Im just working on the trophy which we are donating to the FRA and it looks wicked! really want to win it now.
Cool video Will!
Aftershock now reminds me of Wedgie :)
Its going to be an interesting competition certainly. Since rebel I have spent around 100 hours working on hornet rebuilding and upgrading. I think after this weekend Jamie can vouch for that! :)
Everything seems to be working well considering the damage I sustained at Rebel and anyone hoping to take out a bulkhead this time around is gonna have a hard time trying.
I certainly can!
It would be great to see Hornet finish 2nd behind Drumroll :mrgreen:
In all seriousness though Hornets looking pretty sweet so hope it does you proud next weekend Gary :)
Im debating whether or not to add more armour panels to Satanix or not :)
Lol remember what happened when hornet ended up behind drumroll today! :lol:
Go on dave, add more armour
Gary if you decide to dismantle 4 4 Toon again, can you please start with the rear left side wheel.With a bit of luck if you hit it just right you might bend it back into shape again,repairing last years impact.:lol:
James/Grant is the draw also the running order of fights or is that yet to be decided?
Clive, the running order will be very similar to the draw, although one or two fights will be changed around to give certain robots more time to charge etc if their fights are abit too close to each other. A revised running order will be sent out in the roboteers e-mail very soon.
Its looking like the hardox floor may be ready intime, we managed to get alot done today, although still ALOT more to do its looking promising.
