Robo Challenge - 2013 FRA UK Featherweight Championships!

I would have thought:

1. NST / Sam
2. Explosion / Me
3. Little Hitter / Grant
4. Cobalt / Kenny
5. Mini Mighty Mouse / Trevor
6. Ripoff / Wendy
7. Beauty 3 / Jonno
8. Drumroll / Jamie
9. Venom / James
10. 4 4 Toon / Clive

But I very much doubt that it'll be that as there is always some complication due to some robots not entering.

Due to the over subscription of the UK Championship's we have now decided to run with 45 robot's in the competition. All spaces are filled and its looking like another great array of robot's

Thank you all for your support - we will let you know when the draw is going to take place!

(James and I will be going over and discussing the top 10 seed's from last years performance in a few weeks time). First I have a snowboarding holiday to go on

So what's everyone planning upgrade wise this year?

**Team Invade** · 23rd January 2013, 20:11

No upgrades for Explosion

**Anttazz** · 23rd January 2013, 20:16

Cicatrix now has electronics that don't catch fire and a scoop that gives enough ground clearance to let the wheels touch the ground.

EJr is a new build which is night and day compared to the old one.

The moral of the story here though really is that anything we enter is going to be more competitive than my cousins entry 2 years ago, I think the only robot he actually took points from was your Gary?

More Jack Daniels on the saturday night than last year

**RogueTwoRobots** · 23rd January 2013, 20:23

I'm planning on upgrading from 8th place to 1st

Hopefully this time we won't need a bag to transport the robot after the comp.

Hopefully get better control on Tormenta 2's lifter, go LiPo, and beef the armour up a bit with the resulting weight freedom.

As for the second machine, it was going to be big and elaborate, but cost-wise it isn't possible this time. We're going to throw together a rambot, most likely, so that dad can have something to drive.
