THE NEW ANHILLATOR CHAMPION
Congratulations to Big Nipper and Little Flipper New UK Champion & winner of Feather comp Well done boys
We had a great event with a few days holiday before. DTK beat Scorpion in her pod again, and went on to take 4th place aafter a pounding from Thz, Fantastic battle thanks Thz but she still DROVE out of the arena afterwards!.
Congartulations to Chris Tanglefoot a new robot a very good effort and impproved dramatically over the week.
The other transmitter that went missing was DTKs along with Beasts, hopefully they will turn up!!
Once again a fantastic event look forward to the next full combat event.
John Scorpion
No problem John.
craig we might of won if the roboteq didnt blow up cus of tib lol
n i think sidewinder makes it slow? so was rly hard to push them to side and they just drive off u when u have them lol
but atleast we went out to the champs
I think the sidewinder was incorrectly set up.
A little tinkering with the current limiter and slew adjustments should solve this problem.
Drop me an e-mail if you need any help or advice on doing this.
Tough as Nails has plenty of grunt, and he runs a single sidewinder.
I dont know, I think the combination Sidewinder and Spektrum also has more of a delay than I had with the 40MHz PCM transmitter and Sidewinder combination I had before. Its not a lot of delay, but somehow i do notice it.
Guys,
Firstly a big thank you to everyone involved, this was certainly a top class event.
What was encouraging was that everybody who confirmed there attendance actually came and no one dropped out at the last minute,
With 27 heavy weights, and 19 feather weights taking part, certainly shows there is life out there !! And to have 19 feather weights In the arena at one time is just pure madness !!
A noticeable difference in atmosphere from normal events, the competition element certainly brought out the fighting spirit in us all.
Everyone worked so hard, and what was incredible was the small amount of machines being taken out of the competition due to unrepairable damage !!
The feedback from all the Audience, and Haven is nothing but positive, and already I am being asked which park we will be attending next year so they can book their holidays again€¦. Nothing like being in demand !!
I wasn€™t there for the final as you know as I was working in London on a corporate event however from what I heard the two Friday shows were the best, and the fights were fantastic.
Congratulations to the Big Nipper team, a well deserved victory, although I think Terrorhurtz was unlucky !
Chris with Tanglefoot, and Smash our newbie roboteers did themselves proud for there first event, looking forward to seeing your robots evolve with time and attending more events.
One other thank you has to be for John Bell€¦. He was the Alan Gribble of the old robot wars, he set up his van / mobile workshop outside the back entrance, and I think he spent 99% of the time in it, helping fix every bodies robots !!
We certainly showed David Calkins our celebrity judge how we run a UK Event !!!
Hope you got back home safe David !
Looking forward to next year, watch this space for when we get it organised, hopefully by the end of September / October so people can plan their holidays.

John
Thanks for an enjoyable event and for all the hard work you and your team put in.
Thanks also go to Trevor for going as far as stripping a motor out of Velocirippa so we could carry on in the competition and to John for the use of the welder. Which ultimately meant that we managed to get the robot running again to throw Dantomkia out of the arena - Sorry about that!
