thats evil looking

[josh]

is there any competition in the 6kg category/are there any comps?

Germany is a good Hobbyweight fighting country.

And 1 new Dutch machine did prove to be very evil.

VERY evil. So evil feathers shied away from it.

any uk event can run 6kg robots, in with the feathers.
for dedicated 6kg fights, we need more people to build them.

i am willing to build one if there are some more people intrested in building one

I might be able to make one , though it would be very basic .

April 8th and 9th the GRA (Germany) organises a competition for (a.o.) 6 kg Raptors.
June 18th DRG will do that in the Netherlands.

bit too far for me but if there was any competition here i would definitely build 1
