Dutch Robot Games 2012 calendar.

Just to mention. The DRG will participate in the Antwerp Sci-Fi convention. May 6th 2012. Featherweight full combat.

Antweigts tbs...

That is right. Feathers and Raptors will compete. If we have a FCC Antweight arena available, they can compete as well.
It is a 1 day event, not far from Calais :-)
We will set up our 2F arena capable of holding al Feathers.

Just looking into ferry costs and if I can get my machine finished in time but woud like to come. Will sign up once Ive got things sorted :)

That would be great James!

When you reserve a ferry through the Norfolk link on our homepage (http://www.dutchrobotgames.nl/), part of the fare will go back into robotering :-)

Cool how does that work? I need to make sure I can get a robot together but fingers crossed will be there :)

Any UK peeps going to this, or just the RoboChallenge guys?

Just the RoboChallenge team, so far. But don't let that hold you back.

Booked the ferry and hotel today, ferry was only £25 return! looking forward to coming. Dont think Predator will make it due to the timing now but Venom and Cpt Scarlett will be there. May see what else we can bring.

I have just sent an e-mail with infos for Sunday.

The event was great, a big thank you to James for bringing over Venom, Predator, and Captain Scarlet. It has been a lot of fun.

Did Predator run?

Any vids? Found this one of Venom:

Predator did a test run, no fights.

Thanks, any vids?

Just got back off holiday, Really enjoyed this event thank you very much for putting it on. Great to meet old friends and many new ones.

Venom broke its neck in its first battle, far too much power for that arm and completely bent it. We did straighten it out for that second battle but as soon as any load went on it just bent again. Ran some initial tests on Predator. First tests with the disc at full speed seem positive, its really nice to drive. You just cant spin up to full speed straight away because it flips its self over but other than that even with the disc tilted right forward it seemed nice. Thank you everyone for putting on the event and all the kind words about my machines. Hope to come to another one soon.

just added a Predator test vid to the build section.
