sorry craig, but i am going to have to pull out after my latest problem. my motor has knackered and it was brand new. i dont think i cant get one before saturday as i had to wait a while to recieve this one (Speed 700 turbo C) i dont want to replace it for the same thing to happen again and that one fail after 2 minutes use. the other seems to be ok so perhaps it was a dud, i dont know.
Adrian,
Would it be possible to swap out your current drive motors for a drill motor system?
Craig, If you need any more reserves then Alex from team Blitz can bring his robot, he was going to join our team anyway so he can bring Blitz if you want.
Hi Gary, not a chance mate. i will try and order a new motor tomorrow but its whether it arrives in time. the last one had to wait ages for it to arrive, i have a number for a couple of model shops that list it so will see if any have one in stock. i have found what caused the problem so it can be resolved with a new motor. my only other way of fixing it is with a different matching set of speed 700 motors.
Craig,
After the conversations we had together on Sunday, on behalf of Geoff, Jenny and myself, we are very sorry but we are going to have to pull Pillow Torque and Pain in the Asp from the competition. This is in order that we are able to fully concentrate on carrying out the tech checks and to ensure the smooth running of your shows under such a tight schedule.

Discussed it with Dave Moulds and Were confident we can tech check all the robots between us in that time , this will allow you the time to get Pillow Torque and PITA ready for combat
out of interest- which tech check sheets are being used? The new style that were put together at the last big FRA meeting? or the normal old less acurate ones?
As it wasnt me that signed up Pillow, other than the tech checking I was not going to attend the event anyway due to the sheer cost.
Confusion now sorted.. See you there!
