Robo Challenge - 2013 FRA UK Featherweight Championships!

[SamO]

Yeh, Endeavours ours. I'll take some pics as soon as its done

[PJ-27]

Haha, wern't you Tormentia last year too?

We've been Bruiser for the longest time! Not sure what James called the actual Bruiser.....

@Gary, Which of the others don't you recognise?

[PJ-27]

Are TS2 and Trouble Starter 2, two different robots?

[razerdave]

I'm interested to know the thoughts behind the seeding. I know one of the top seeds didn't enter, but another that did is not in the top 10. How come ?

[RogueTwoRobots]

Which one's that Dave?
I was confused as to why Drumroll was 6th when I finished 8th but LH isn't in there and Beauty 3/Rip has been sold on. Venom was top ten as well I think, but James has Predator this year (would love to draw that!)

PJ, I'm pretty sure TS2 and Trouble Starter 2 are the same. In the list James posted, there are 48 robots, but there are three robots listed in both the top 10 and the other entries (mine, TS2 and RipOff). Take those three out and that leaves 45.

[PJ-27]

1- NST (Reigning UK Champion)
2- Explosion - Flipper, always comes second!
3- Cobalt - Crusher, coming back with a self righter
4- MMM (07 UK Champion) - Looks like a mouse
5- Ripoff - The black horse of last year's event!
6- Drumroll - Sort out that belt problem Jamie!
7- 4 4 Toon - Decent ram bot
8- TS2 - Serious potential, look out for this one.
9- Tiny Toon (€™10 UK Champion)
10- LF3 (€™11 UK Champion) - Trying the solenoid again?

[PJ-27]

Last year a few reserves had to be called up so would be good to know who they are!

I'd feel bad fighting Predator, all that effort!

[razerdave]

I didn't see rip-off in the seed list, sorry Jamie.

PJ: Rabid is now a brushless operated vertical claw, was a vert spinner before :P

[Eventorizon]

I am wondering who Vortex is. It it storm vortex by the storm 2 team, cos that would be worrying.

[razerdave]

Yes it is. Hopefully he doesn't drop out this time (UK champs last year and a demo event in Belgium he signed up for).
