Sam, youre arena is going to be toast with 1m diameter 30Kg doing 2000rpm. Supernova packs a 27Kg disk of much smaller diameter doing 2000rpm
Toast I say.... Toast :P

Ive still got to keep tabs on the safety, even if we are saying well give it a go...

John,
Your new machine is a nice piece of work, Mute still has the scraps in the polycarb from just runing into the blade at Robot wars (it wasnt even spinning) It must have taken about 6mm thk chucks out of our 12mm thk polycarb.
Terry,
Your armour will definately get a good test. I think Sam better get some more brushes and black bags to keep the arena clean
Regards
Adam
Thanks Adam I guess you saw how many pieces we were in after our last fight.

screeeeeechhhhhhh.............
backtrack backtrack typhoon flashback.
lol, sorry Sam, had to point that out.
Hey... I dont do backtracking!
I do considered approaches to unforeseen developments :)
In the end if its bloody scary.. and something we didnt expect and therefore couldnt prepare for (or just plain couldnt afford to prepare for!), well just controlled test and make an informed decision on the results..
Cant be a lot fairer than that really..

big wuss lol
Sam is there a place for a antweight corky 2 at robotcrusade 150 mm tie disk 2000 rpm ? or do you think this is a bit over the top
THIS WONT HURT
Sam will only be running at 1000rpm as 2000rpm is for Battlebots its just to dam fast for the UK
As for TERRY Wanna fight (YOU BET}we will test your armour.
Stick an app in for the antweight John, dont see why no :)
Itll still pack a hell of a punch even at 1000rpm.. still a bit less scary I suppose..
Ill still be wanting to test it me thinks, along with quite a few others coming along! I think the Friday could turn into a testing session at this rate!!! :)

Ive got a robot with a spiny thing, i wanna join aswell.
No Ed, the disc weighs 22kg might be closer to 30Kg for next year. Hopefully with some special blades for 12mm grade 5 Ti.
Suren
Supernova will go sparkle then I guess.
Balen, Ti isnt the best stuff for teeth, ,except you want to go for showeffect.
If you want the hear my idea, mail me.If you already know what you want, mailing me doesnt hurt.
oh god not supernova as well..
this avent of yours could turn out very interesting sambo:)
(message to Typhoon driver)
oh please.... please...
if you are reading.....
please sign up.....
I want to see Sam go blue.
yeah common, we wanna see all the nasty spinners fight :)
Jonno
Im sure we can do plenty of damage with our Supernova interchangable weapon ;)
Oi Oi Ed, hows Storm after our last fight, managed to repair it yet?
Sorry guys, ment to say that i wanted to join the Spinning Robot Association. Not doing any events with Nova, this years model is retired. Designing the next years model now :-)
james if i said yes wot would it entail?
if its fighting then i cant say yes or no because its a whole team decision (theres around 12 of us) and none of the typhoons are in a fighting state at the moment
You could always come along and display if you dont wish to fight.
Wed love to have the typhoon family along... and itd give you a chance to have a look at what goes on on the live event circuit.
As typhoon 2 (your heavyweight I believe?)Is IC powered youll not be able to run that one Im afraid due to venue restrictions.. but the other ones are more than welcome to come fight :)

How high up is that roof in the rw arena?
gary, is the middleweight Typhhon electric? as a few middleweights may be attending. If mines ready ill fight you!
None of the typhoon family are in working order and wont be for some time. typhoon 2 is IC and we wouldnt allow it to run on any live arenas as its jst too dangerous
all the others are electric but as i said none are in working order at the moment. this is through upgrading and repair work
ill suggest it to the team, we were thinking about attending live events but the only problem is getting there and transportation plus clearing it through the ATC etc. believe me its a lot of hastle to jst attend robot wars each year!
Sorry Sam, just realised how many posts Ive made that mention winding you up recently, Ill back off that.
Typhoon featherweight looked fantastic, and Id strongly reccommned (go as far as beg) you get that running for enginuity if you can possibly come. I know the problems with getting the machines running and the probs with ATC paperwork and red tape, been there, dun that.... or not as the case often was.
It would be fantastic to have you guys at these kinds of event, and I cant think of a better one to go to than the Crusade (except mine, but we know thats me being biased)
Didnt even notice James.. straight over my head..
Spend far to much time talking to Mr Hoppit these days for anyone else to have a look in at winding me up!!!!! :):)
PADing
Sorry.. couldnt help myself :)

Hi all first post on this forum.
Sam,
you might want to look here, got you a mention in our staff paper!!
http://www.imperial.ac.uk/P4791.htmhttp://www.imperial.ac.uk/P4791.htm
ps we found out why our weapon failed in the spinner special, when we took a hit from mr Psycho on our rear armour, it cracked our removable link, worked perfectly when we got it back to work and inserted a new link, now all we need is a rubber link to stop it happening again!!

Ahh peski links ay.. always the thing to go first!
