Would all Featherweight builders please note the following rule changes take effect from 01/01/2008.

1) Weight limit is increased from 12Kg plus 600g of gas to 13.6Kg including gas.
(This now brings the UK & Europe into line with the rest of the world)

2) A123 lithium battries may be used in featherweight robots, subject to a maximum pack size of 7 cells and the use of proprietary charges and Balancers.
