http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C1uBMxkJ ... re=related second biggest roboteering fail I've seen on Youtube

blimey there isnt any polycarbonate around their arena , these guys are nutters :shock: :shock:

It wouldn't be so bad if they weren't stoood RIGHT THERE next to active robots!

DragonCon's been like that for years, they don't allow spinners (obviously) and there are limitations on weapons but there doesn't appear to have been any serious accidents (although I haven't studied any event in detail).

Personally, I quite like their close-up approach.

those guys genuinly seem nuts but its very quick to start and stop battles though :)

All of their spinning weapons have a limited tip speed of 20 feet/sec to limit KE levels and make it safe(ish)

Yeah they're more like rotational electric lifters/flippers than spinners, but it seems to work quite well. I especially love Dale Heatherington's electric rotary flipper: http://www.wa4dsy.com/robot/omegaforce2-robot

Put up a new short video of a tuned engine spitting a few little flames. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PnvmD2mzPvM

I don't know if anyone watches the videos by, or is subscribed to, 'votesaxon07' on Youtube. He does toy reviews on a lot of Dr. Who and Robot Wars stuff as well as other toys. Now the reviews are usually pretty fair and accurate, but just make sure not to buy him a wind up Dalek for Christmas :lol:

Sounds Like Dr Ashens would be your sort of thing too then Jamie?

Dunno :P
Although that's the second time recently I've heard that name mentioned...

From Harry by any chance? I notice he slips a lot of references into his videos and hopes no one will notice :wink:

The pop watch catagory was the first ones I saw, its basically just terrible games that dont really work properly. He just reviews products that are bad and takes the piss out of them and their sad onions.

i slip them in to hope people notice :P
he liked one of my videos of an antweight drum spinner called the godmonster of indian flats

Found quite a cool video on Youtube of Warhead undergoing some of its initial tests:

However i dont do much robot related videos anymore. Tend to be doing stuff during events so cant really take many videos.

An incredible swarm of Quadrotors. A sure sign that machines will take over the world soon enough. They even sound as intimidating as a swarm of bees or wasps.

Awesome! I wonder how they position themselves.

Whilst browsing internet I found this

I'd like to see Rex get this series past today's health and safety.

Perfect hit with the axe!!

Watch for the hit at 38 seconds! :shock: :D

Bloody carnage!!! Nice find! :D

Same fight, different angle (arena cam):

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JMl05TaLtEE

I love how the drum and chassis of the robot separate and then find each other again.

Oooh arena cam, neat idea!
