would be cool, but Gravity 4 is a very much downgraded version of the series 7 Gravity 3.
Itll all come down to drivability and reliability ! Cause 10 6 foot drops must shake something loose, right ? :)

How did Air do at Ironbridge?

had a few teething probs with air at ironbridge but nothing too serious. hope all runs well at newark.

What u mean u got beat by the washing machine Shane:)

So did a lot of other people, including Storm II and Terrorhurtz.
No shame in losing to a Drum of Doom :)

Sam

thor beat the washing machine :)

What was this drum of doom???

The Drum of doom was the very latest thing in robot fighting technology, the model we were fighting was an amazing piece of kit from Japan I believe. Had a huge spinning drum which when its at full speed literally flings everything to the edge.

Very impressive, Storm II had no chance :sad:

Hehe :)

Just you wait, theyll be back even BIGGER AN BADDER at the next one...

Be warned :)

Sam

i think the model ED is refering to was a ZANUSSI:)

For those of us who missed out, may I ask WHAT ON EARTH?

(My robot designs are planned with an eye to defeating the current robots Ive seen on the circuit; should I start building an AWMW?)

Andrew If I am not Mistaken the lads were beaten by a washing machine. It happened to shredder at deb 2002 where a terrible beer keg got the better of them lol :)

:sad::sad:

OIC! Sorry, thought for a moment someone had come up with a new arena attachment (like the little rotating thing which Mentorn had a few seasons back, only much bigger).

Im not sure Id say the keg got the *better* of them, as I recall - it seemed to be somewhat the worse for wear. Mind you, the damage to the beer keg was probably cheaper to repair. :-)

So this is what happens to all the white goods which the government wants us to recycle in an environmentally friendly manner, then?

Yeh, Im still thinking its an arena weapon of some kind?

Intruiged...

I think Ed was being facetious, and theyve just all managed to do what the drop zone couldnt and damage their robots by smacking them into a second-hand washing machine. Unless he wasnt, in which case sorry Ed, and Id like to see the giant spinner.

(Hmm, thinks about running robot combat in one of the tilting centrifugal thingies which you can stand in at some amusement parks - at low speed, obviously. Could be very interesting.)

can we get back to this being a thread about air please. the new air is nearly finshed and will be running at newark with all the new bits it should be one to watch and it looks pretty damn good

Will the webpage get updated any time soon then?

yep should be. also as we are now one team, thor we be on there to soon.

air has had a serious testing time latley and the results are all good now. air has a power drive setup and an awsome flipper so just watch out you lot.

lets have those piccies and test videos !

will have some test videos and piccies very soon. probably be fighting with thor in the unused night club we have. must tell him to go easy i think :)

sorry to bring back an old thread...
actually, no im not :)
as air returns, so doth the thread.

well air is returning ok and so is thor as we are team bud. i will post build updates this time. starting with air being drawn up on cad then punched and folded to shape. coooooooool

i think i am changing the name of air because the new robot is completley redesigned and the look of it just dosnt look like a robot called air. my new robot will be among us soon :)

Looking forward to seeing it. Will have to have a fight with Kronic sometime.

i would love to get flipped out of the arena thanks dave.

These days you just have to wait for Kronic to flip himself out, hey Dave.

Be careful what you wish for...Im not too sure Chaos 2 liked being tossed out by Dantomkia; nor the latter by Gravity. :mrgreen:

Nothing wrong with a good toss :rofl:

Unless youre Axe Awe, right James? :wink:

As Dave lang will tell you, I can toss one out in 6seconds. :lol:

its not how quick you can finish Dave, its how big a tosser you are.....

oh god

might change the name from air to tosser :)

LMAO!!! :lol:

Hi Shane this sounds like an invitation for a
competition to rename air.
I will start with high enirgy.

i vote for tosser :)

I second that- Tosser by name, Tosser by nature

A Tosser in the arena, driven by a tosser out of the arena. :)

Fantastic :) yep I think tosser is a great one,
