Well
Any updates on whos through to the finals yet? :)
just got back all i can say is great event thanx again to RR
the last 7 teams all on 14 points so 13 got through!!!
Excellent event, a bit stressful but really pleased with how it went.
Hydra worked ok, new flipper shape a success, flipper bungee return worked ok but persistent gas leaks so not able to get an idea of how well it performs yet.
Now, for all you doubters here are the results of SMIDSY's competition fight:
1st - SMIDSY
2nd - St Hammer
3rd - Thor
Not even a scratch on the paintwork!
SO just as a reminder I believe the competition results are Team Hydra 3 - 0 Team Bud!!
Suppose no amount of new axe heads help when you don't build your robot properly :rofl:
Andy
Oi!!!!!!!
Thats my team your talking about Andy! I believe we'll have a score to settle at Wigan! :twisted:
twas a good event, thanks to RR for hosting it :)
orrion (or mythras for 1 event only :P) lost its fight (was that such a suprise XD?) with us getting stuck on the rail, well done to beast :)
the feather fought lol :P well first match it died but second we actualy moved....then our link came out (damn you hunter :P) oh and to add insult to injury, MD squashed us...and then we went flying on the flipper....then got thrown oota :P but it was great fun (might be the end of that rx on thants tho eh tom? :rofl: )
once again thanks to RR and congrats to all those who qualified :)
ttfn
jack
oh and p.s: thanks to craig for that free stuff box :P
Thanks RR for a great day.
1st - SMIDSY -Wheel glued together!
2nd - St Hammer -working ok
3rd - Thor -only one motor going!
I really thought I could win that one! (If I hadn€™t driven into the pit, and got my sword stuck into Major Damage I could have) :|
A big thanks to Jonno and the RR crew for another great weekend.Well done to everybody that has qualified for Wigan,especially Thz,Thor and Tiberious.Three great machines who are awesome robots.I am not brown nosing because we are scared of you at all you know. :lol:
A big thanks to Jonno, Pete Lale and John Bell for lending us the bits and pieces that enabled us to fight at Maidstone.We would't have got very far without batteries or a speed controller.
Two weeks to go till Wigan.We need to change back the modifications made by Thz as we have decided that we preferred the old shape.Weld the motor supports back where they should be and not where John Reid left them.Give And His Army a nice new shiny paint job and then the biggest problem, the weight issue.Just where can i secure 20 kilos of ballast? :lol: :lol:
See you all there
Appologies to all for not attending this one when I said I was going.
Pressure's battery pack went up in smoke the day before! :shock: (I don't have spares) and
Skink's, already damaged, flipper (thanks Shane! :angry: ) also got more damage and is on the verge of falling apart. :(
Catch you all next time, Mike. :)
Hopfully in Dublin Mike :)
