:rofl:
Oi Jason, I'll have yer head for this :rofl:
Try saying that to the guy who renamed St. Agro Maelstrom....after there's like 80 other robots named Maelstrom already :lol:
brandon, you wouldnt happen to be headbanger would you :P (off youtube)
You mean that dude who makes all those ruddy Thomas/Young Ones parodies? Nah, I'm not me! :rofl:
There weren't any other active robots in the UK with that name- thats why I chose it! It can be hard enough choosing a good name without seeing whether it has been used elsewhere in the world.Quote:

i can see a flaw.......
its not orrion :mrgreen:
Anyone know the height of Robots Live and Roming Robots arena floor from the ground?
Wanting to make a cradle for Stamper so we want to be able to slide it straight off and onto the cradle.
Bring a ruler to the next event :lol:
Can't help with the measurements I'm afraid, but what about making some sort of mini scissor-lift unit for your robot? That way you can jack it up to the height of the RR floor or RL floor, slide your robot on/off, wheel it through the pits, jack it up to the level of your pit table and slide your robot off (perhaps with the cradle so it keeps its wheels off the surface)
Maybe a bit elaborate, but it would save your backs a lot, and probably look quite cool 8)
i can measure it for you next time in Nottingham for you !!
Dont know it off hand.
Think team buds trolley is the right height, ask them.
The R/Robots Arena is approx 420mm off the floor ....
Thats an APPROX as it rests on me knee when building :)
..........................Pete......
I think ours is 470mm, i'll check it out if you want.
remember the door on your arena tho as i am sure its a little higher than the floor. Our trollys are just a bit higher than jonnos floor so we can slide the robots in the arena straight off the trolly. have to lift the robot back out a little tho.....all good and can be done by 1 person. best thing we built are them trollys i reccommend everyone build one.
The Teambud bar will be at riat again this year. Will probably be getting a barrell of Stella and another but undecided. can i have a show of interest of who wants what please.

I'll be on the door then floor :wink: :wink: :wink:
