@ Guilherme, you could always bring along the other robot and enter it into whiteboards. These are non competition fights just held for the fun of it.
We're booked into the same Premier Inn as Team Toon, staying through till Monday so will be available to help with arena take-down if needed.
signed up! best get something made
PJ-27, the question is this, I'll take two robots and I only driver for both. Can I then take them and driver them without problems?
k_c_r, the Premier Inn is that you said Premier Inn Birmingham NEC / Airport?
What do yours think about the Ibis Birmingham Airport?
@ Guilherme, My understanding is that there's a driver per robot rule for the competition. So you can bring a couple of robots but only one of them can compete, the other can enter the whiteboard battles though.
PJ-27, sorry for many questions, but how does it work the whiteboard?
At the time of enrollment, enroll both robots in competition or just what it will take to compete and the other without inscription?
Thanks for the help,
@ Guilherme, No worries. When you sign up you have to put a driver's name next to each robot and then at the end of the page there is a box for any non competition bots.
The whiteboards are just casual fights held throughout the weekend that aren't part of the competition. Most of them are on the Sunday when there are only a few robots still competing.
So you'll either need a team mate or to pick which robot you want to compete with.
Ive signed up Bruiser 1&2, hope i finish the second one by then!
Sign ups are going really well thank you very much Guys! Guilherme do you have a team mate that could drive your second robot in the competition? We will be running a few whiteboards battles each day however due to time constraints they will be limited.
Sign ups and info for the warm up fun event will be open tomorrow so keep your eyes peeled for that one too :)
How many spaces are gone?
When it comes to joining the FRA, is there a way of paying without a cheque. My bank wont give me one as I am a student so what are the alternatives?
About 2/3rds full at the moment which is great. There are still a fair few teams that have said they will be entering and a few teams that have paid and are yet to fill in the form so looking good. The champions are yet to enter! Will be releasing the seeds for the event very soon :)
Seeds! Awesome. Are you basing them on last years results?
James, I'll just go and my wife. There is no possibility that I may drive both?
If it is not possible, signed up one in the full combat and the other as white board.
I want to play a game...
No. It was an issue a while back. One team would throw three machines into the competition and then they would end up fighting against each other in a quarter or semi final. I'm sure you can see the problem there!
Your wife could drive one of them!
You can either pay cash at an event, bank transfer or PayPal.The later 2 options please mail info@fightingrobots.co.ukQuote:

If we are to qualify on the friday, what time would we need to be there?
I'm signed up, hopefully I last more than 1 fight this time.
Just a note to the organisers, I have signed up for whiteboards with Hell's angel but I would like to submit it for the annihilator.
signed up with Laser 2
Last year we had to be there at 8:30am each day I believe.
RoboChallenge release a pretty detailed info pack before hand.
Looking forward to seeing Hell's Angel Dave!
IGNORE!
was me making a silly :oops:
Yeah, part of the sign up process is to state you preference on whether you want to qualify Fri or Sat,
.
i stated saturday but I'm thinking thats only a preferred option. only asking so i can book hotel for correct amount of nights and sort work
money sent, form filled out when i have more details. such as a car registration
Fee payed, Metalbeak signed up, looking forward to it already! :D
Just a bit of warning, I entered with exposed wheels last year. Little Spinner 4 took the drill shaft off the side of the robot. Wheel & all. It's 3 times on the highlights video. Actually, IMHO, it's the best bit of the video. :DQuote:
