there wont be a ramp as such. i believe the arena will be extended about a meter and half on 2 sides which will be the same level. so imagine where your robot hits the floor, instead it will just be the other side of the barrier and you will be able to drive back in while other robot gets to the wating area so no iron awe wont be waiting for you. thats what i gather anyway i am sure jonno wll put me right if i am wrong. i think its a fantastic idea and will change the way we fight.

yes correct, current plans are not to have a ramp, but to have an automatic arena door and a loading pen !!!

Oh we also need some volunteers for uneven arena floor trials.

There will be a few raised sections retro fitted on sunday morning for trials.
They will be 12mm high and at 45 degrees at the joins.

Anyone up for it ?

12mm @ 45 degrees!! Is that it!! You might have given Pain In The Asp a real challenge, say 50mm @ 90 degrees!!

[robotwars]

well eventually it will be 90 degrees, but you gotta start somewhere

[swanaldo]
