OK GUYS ...........
MY MONEY IS ON THE QUICK LIFTER
20 pounds on the smoothe topped lifter MR SWANN ?

COME ON DRIVER DONT LET ME DOWN .....

no, your wrong, eugenes is the white one with the lifter powered by the motor at the back.
that is a complex piece of engineering

The yellow one, has changed from what i thought was going to be a front hinged flipper is a sliding pannel, they hope to hook their opponents on it, and then it slides up on top of the robot. like a sunroof !!!

the claws will have scoops fitted, they are not seeking to only destroy they will scoop up their opponents, and underneath the ends of the claws are casters so they will still be able to push their opponents around.

Right im really going now..... down singapore people... normally work 9am until 11pm and 6 days a week here !! they are mad !!!

Im going to drag gary out to dinner !!

But seriously guys, you have done wonders in a couple of days, I especialy like the thing with the claws. In fact they all look like exellent machines. I just wish I were there to see this competition.
Mr Eugene, I understand that you would like a piece of Pain In The Asp? Please feel free to try! As I tell the the roboteers over here in the UK You want it, you gotta catch it first!

On behalf of all of the roboteers in the UK and Europe, we really hope you have all enjoyed this weeks introduction to the strange world of combat robotics. We are all looking forward to seeing a machine from Team Singapore at an event here in the UK before too long.
I await the result of Fridays competition with great interest... good luck to you all!
