There are no spinner heavys cos the british arenas cant contain them. I would have to go to the US to fight with it. The Robochallenge arena is fine for a single heavyweight but no more... shame really...

It was something we considered for cooling the 4QDs on 13Black, you don`t need to store it as its easy to make from either a fire extinguisher or the CO2 bottles at the event. Just blast CO2 into a towel or glove for a bit and you`ll have loads.
In the end we went with big heatsinks and pc fans but they lasted about 30 seconds before the shock loads broke the blades off so find some thick bladed ones.
I seem to remember our 4QDs dropped to 40% power output when they got hot so it really is something worth thinking about.
I wouldn't think Alan or jonno would be happy with their co2 being wasted like that , unless you kept your towel over the fill rig exhaust and only used co2 that had to be vented off anyway. May be there a while then !
yes thats how I meant, we made some at a recent event and was dropping lumps into cups of hot water to make 'mystic smoke effects' :D
I used to work at a lab, and most of the things that got shipped in came with dry ice packaging.
So I get a load of it put it in a large lab since and blast it with hot water.
On several occasions I was very tempted to shout fire! and Run from the lab.
