What Venue?

Just got back from Stoke and thought Id reclaim Hydra thread from the general chatter.

Have to say the improvemnt from Colchester was awesome. Having re-plumbed the pneumatics and done away with the leaks it self rights and the axe power is improved to the point we got stuc in the floor at one point.

Drive was all good. Need to adjust the speed controllers a bit but apart from that no real probs.

Next thing we need to fix is drivers experience. Looking at it Lukes had about 20minutes total driving a heavyweight so Stoke was a good event in the whiteboards.

Had to laugh when Iron Awe tried to help us when we got stuck in the side of the arena and flipped us out....................hmmmmmm............That was Mr Grimms excuse anyway

U thought Iron-Awe? I remember Hydra meeting Iron-Awe in the Axe-Attack in Robot Wars Series 7!

Yep, we fought Iron Awe in the first fight in the show. Wed spoken before the fight and said we wanted to test out the drive and pneumatics and everything else wed been working on.

We got stuck on the side wall and iron Awe tried to get us off with a low pressure flip. (same way they got us out of the arena floor when the axe got stuck.) Didnt quite happen that way as we dissapeared over the side wall.

Made me laugh anyway and it didnt really matter as wed checked everything was working by that time anyway.
