Well I thought I would give some feedback on how Team Saint robots did in the
Robot Wars UK Championships

Saint did very well! it weighed in at just under 95Kg with the feather axe fitted.
it won the first round so made it through to the quarter finals and lost to Iron Awe 5 which is no shame as it is an ex UK champ.
saint didn't have any significant mechanical problems in the weekend only one bearing cap failed this is a regular thing and we keep loads of spares, the Wotty overheated at the end of one fight but then cooled down enough to drive out of the arena after a few minutes.

Cherub went better than I think everyone expected, won the first round too. then lost to Behemoth very quickly, for some reason the lifter mechanism stopped working and Cherub could not self right, got it back to the pits all worked perfectly, don't you just hate that!! It went into a whiteboard fight and worked very well it is fun to see it self right, after the weekend I noticed when packing it away the split link on the lifter was coming apart so I will have to fix that before the next one. but with the wins it means we have 2 robots seeded for next year and neither of them flippers.

Tron did what Tron dose, it is a bit of a "boring box" but it is tough and reliable and easy to drive. Didn't win never dose, but it gives me something to do in the feather fights.

Seraph won the best feather,
I can't begin to tell you how good this feels. it has been fighting for quite a few years now and has proven to be impossible for any other feather (with the exception of some spinners) to do any damage to, in fact most can't even get close to it! every fight it goes around scoring points off any robot Zack chooses to hit, and still hardly ever gets close in any of the competition finals much to mine and Zack's amazement, but perhaps at least at Robot Wars events the corner has turned and it will be recognised as the design classic I believe it to be. Robot Wars ................. guys we salute you

Kettle bot
I don't know why people like it but they do, we changed the balance on this one and it drives as well forward as it dose backwards!! which has to be an improvement.

Final words have to be many thanks to All at Robot Wars and all our dear friends and fellow roboteers for a truly wonderful weekend.
