[typhoon_driver]

I believe it was a solid piece of steel weighing around 10kg but I will let Kenny confirm.

[john]

very nice if it is

[john]

first time iv seen this vid
http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=FZ_e6jM3RQ0&NR=1

looks well cool - what are RC planning on doing with there lights now, cus i can see them getting smashed now lol

[Mouldy]

it was a block of steel 7kg.. it would of gone higher then that but it hit a light fitting- then a steel I beam on the factory roof.. slowed it down abit.. we worked out away of giving it even more speed to the flip since then anyhow

I think there going to be putting cages or somthing around the lights

[Mouldy]

btw john that video link you posted was for the old flow- not much is the same on the new one.

it looks very good

how many flips do you get about?

[grant_ploughbot]

who needs multiple flips when you only need 1
That block was actually 7.6kg, went upto the neam about 2ft above that light, and hit the light on its way back down.
Kennys made a pretty good job this time. oh, its in the weight so far aswell lol

[john]

well ye u mainly only need 1 flip in the competitions but in play fights he will need to clear the arena and even flip out the beautys :P lol
