Karoline, luckily audience was behind 15mm polycarb/steel net at this event, bad thing was that roboteers didnt have that shield because it would have been too difficult to drive so far away. at next event audience doesnt have any shielding so i drop HCs rpm to 450. (and the weapon HAS a failsafe to prevent a runaway robot killing people)

JH-Q you have re-sparked my want to build a drum bot i have been drawing plans for ages and the result is .....Void.....

Ah I must have missed that bit on the video edit when you activated the failsafe, and removed the link before picking the robot up from the middle of the arena floor. BTW it was a very clear picture taken through the 10mm thick polycarb walls required for an arena to safely run spinners in the UK, but you are in Finland so perhaps it wasnt there.
