Is there a set space in one of the Magna events for a MW battle or you just going to slot it in when theres some time to kill? what time u want me to get to the event. I can get there early-ish if u need any help with anything.
Someone should be filming all of these MW fights, it would make a totally spiffing dvd!
yea middleweights are in the last of the 3 shows
Were going to record it so we could record the others for a dvd
Sounds good. The middles still playing by the same rules as the FWs at Rebel? BTW Craig you missed an O out of Hooligan on your website. Iv looked at the list about 10 times and only just noticed.
Done anything with the championship belt idea yet Craig? Maxus is all up and running, Having a little trouble with 1 batts but hopefully it will sort itself out after a few cycles.
craig, do you still have those wheelchair motors?
Alex you going to build a Middle?
Thinking about it. I wanted a heavy, but space is an issue. A middle is another way of building something with a bit more grunt than a feather.
Is buying a complete MW an option for you?
You ever go on MSN?
You selling up Tom? If so, drop us a line.
Nah not me, Maxus is stayin with Me :p but Tony (Froggy) wants to concentrate on his heavy so hes going to let Voodoo Chile go. I will buy it if nobody else does, I just want sumthing to fight against at events. Get Cabrakan a lighter weight weapon and get him down to middleweight class. or i fill maxus with lead and bring him to the heavyweights :p Infact keep cabrakan same weight we will just pretend its a middleweight. I wanna take on storm force too Liam said, and i quote Maxus looks WAY too small to fight Storm Force!
Its not the size that counts its how you use it... well thats what i keep telling myself anyway :uhoh:
so... Maxus, Storm Force and Cabrakan sometime?
Definately. Im currently in the process of building a solo heavyweight too. It probably wont be too heavy so Id be up for fighting. Probs wont be ready for a while yet though.
How much does he want for Voodoo Chile? Id be interested if I can scrap some money together if its not too expensive.
I love the size of Maxus. Put some lead in and fight the heavies, they couldnt catch you! lol.
About £300, Like i said if no 1 wants it ill buy it so i have somthing to play around with, with maxus
nah do what i do with valliant, hide in the corner close your eyes and wait until the £3000 spinner goes away :uhoh:
ill get you one day pete w ! :angry:
like tom said its not the size that matters, my new wooden featherweight can be koed by passing butterflys, well you know the saying flys like a butterfly stings like a ... butterfly
jack
What? Whos hidin? Eh?
I very much doubt Valiant cost £3000....
£300 aye...hmm...Ill have to think about that
no mate i own valliant, i was talking about when i face combatant variant and co... they must cost a few bob...
and tom you should see petes bots! usually i wait until the last second but his ants are just scary!
I meant Variant, not Valiant. Petes ants cost nowhere near £3000, thats just ridiculous.
Ok im confused. How did we get from Voodoo to variant?
Common People get some Middleweights built.
Ive really no idea Tom. lol. This is the Light and Middleweight section if we can keep it that way.
Dont think I can russle up that much money in a small period of time though, so if you want to go ahead and buy it, you should.
Suppose with all the bits you will have lying around you could build one cheaper
bit of a catch 22 Tom, id like to build one as they are more managable than a hw, but i wouldnt take the plunge until i saw more on the scene first. which is probably what others who are tempted to build one would think.
surprises me that their isnt more around. thought this weight would be more popular

Yea, Would be cool if a few people with them spare parts lying around doing nothing would throw somting together.
or even a cluster. Few people could get together on a cluster
well i got a couple of hawkers sitting there, some iskras and some bits of hardox kicking around. Problem if i build one is that its likely to be a spinner :)
gary! u and ur spinners ay lol
we could get beast down to 55kg easy some1 just buy us aload of a123 batteries and were nearly there
It doesnt need to be a spinner.

meh its just no fun if you arent spinning a piece of metal to a high speed!
Lol nice vid Tom, been a while since I last seen that :)
Mind you I do have a bunch of LP pneumatics in the shed.....
Maybe after the summer when i have more time on my hands, and hopefully more cash. Although Im planning to win the euromillions on Friday so that should come sooner rather than later.
erm no chance iv already claimed the euro millions!
I might build one, my heavy might end up too light. Would be an easier catagory to become champion of if theres only 3 or 4 knocking around, lol. Mind you, I think if you build a robot and it ends up a middleweight, just pile armour on until its a heavy, cos to build a heavyweight on my own has always been my aim.
God, Typhoon Rover weighed 65kg? Lol, put a spinner on it and its back in business!
instead of making typhoon rover a spinner just bring back typhoon but we need a spinner event first lol
typhoon rover could have easily dropped down to a middleweight. It had 4 hawkers in there!
The drive was straight out of typhoon 2 along with the two vantec speedos. I have the barebones chassis sitting in my shed but it would need a layer of armour to beef it up for the arena.
Get it done!
I wonder what happened to all the old middleweights. Think they have been scrapped or do you think theres still some gathering dust?
Id never take a bigger robot apart unless I was building another out of the bits. Even if all the competitions ground to a hault, id still keep it. So I reakon theres a few out there somewhere. Well, the ones Typhoon didnt tear apart anyways. lol
Steel Sandwich still alive?
Bring back 259!
Bring back all the middleweights. Well im havin Voodoo Chile me thinks, Just sortin a few things out.
Then ill have 2 middles. Voodoo will probs stay as it is for now. Nice little house robot for when im messin around with the feathers in the garden too. I might build another middle aswell to just use up some bits and bobs i got for the MW i was building before i got Maxus.
cluster!:)
