Nope, one robot to one driver thoughout the competition. You drive it in the first round and you drive it in the final. No other machines.

Tested 360 last night, went kinda sphyco and started throughing bits of the tarmac we were driving it on at us lol

Leo, you know you dont want me to drive in a competition. You only ask me to drive when you want to test your robot most thoroughly against self-inflicted damage.

360 now has the spikes and wheel guards pic on profile

Thats the best feather rep of a heavy weight ive seen in ages, since Kitty then Venom. Though i dont think Kitty will beat venom and 360 like what happened in the heavy weights. LOL. Love it. Cant wait to see a video clip of its first fight.

suppose it will do

Thanks stu, Hopefully ill have time to paint the spiral on the disc for this event, Unfortunatly the selfwrighter wont be finished- so im pretty screwed from the start. Ive got all the parts for the arm and all the gears and the astro to power it all, just havnt had the time to machine the gearbox plates up.

Would be pretty awsome to have that 3 way fight but i dont see it happening unfortunatly. I ment to take a pic of 360 next to kitty last time i saw it but forgot, let me know next time its coming for display

Id better show the hypnodisc team at some point aswell lol

Yer 360 needs some more work to get it driving well whilst the disc spins lol. Its abit liek warhead, but worse
If we can sort that out then whoever gets hit by it will wish they hadnt entered lol! (if it works ok on the day that is!)
Its not like you can go straight for it before it spins up either - so id try and keep away :wink:, i know i will.

LJ 360 is OOTA 1st flip or your dead man

[grant_ploughbot]

I would be carefull
360 wont just flip like normal - when the disc spins its like warhead and as soon as you flip it the disc will tilt forward and most likely remove your flipper.
I seeing how little the disc slowed down whilst continually hitting the floor with no power you can really see how much energy is stored in it when its going. That means trying to flip it will be very fun..... for 360
