I think we are close to E car park on the map looking at goggle maps, Grant has told me it is Gate 3 we are to go through the registration numbers of the cars will be given to the gatehouse so you should make sure you drive the right vehicle!
From what I can see the car park is not too far from the Hall, so if push comes to shove you could always lug the stuff across the road.
Boner & Ring piece. Sounds like a cop show.Originally Posted by typhoon_driver
ring piece vs boner?......Whirlpool? I think that design can have only 1 possible name. Good luck Ringpiece
Sounds like a whole other type of show to me
The Closest car park will be N2, not a long walk to hall 11.
I will confirm tomorrow but it looks like you may need to go round to carpark N12 to get a pass to be allowed through gate 3 to the loading area. It was origionally planned that the guys on the gate would let us through without the need for the passes, but it didnt seem to work today!
Just a word of warning - They will not let you through to the loading area after approximatly half past 8 - so to ensure that you dont need to carry all your equiptment i would recomend getting onsite early (7.45am?)
With regards to parking - It does appear that we can get exhibitor passes to allow roboteers out without the parking charge. Again I will confirm this tomorrow so please dont quote me on that (quote Alan).
No progress pics as I havent made much progress. Iv started a few bits but nothing major is actually complete yet, Well I have a speed 900 mounted to a baseplate with 1 bracket. Still got to do another bracket for it. Nothing else I can do tonight. Ill have from roughly 5-6 pm when finish work untill about 4 am friday morning when we start packing the van. Plus we have to clear the van out at some point after iv finished work because it full of roofing gear (my mates a roofer and its his van)

Took a day off work as I figured I'd need it, just about to print out all the event details, checklist, draw, directions etc and then I'll be making a start on things. So hopefully working 9-5 (don't start dancing) on robot stuff, although got to head into town for petrol, food, drinks and haircut at various points throughout the day, but should be enough time for everything
Also just noticed that Innovation First International is based quite close to the robot zone. Handy to know if my Victor breaks
gotta fit some wheels to boner today if they arrive in time. Here's hoping! Otherwise I'm running on wheels that i made myself in a rush the other day
Bitza is currently not running, yesterday while trying to fix the no movement problem the right stick on the Tx snapped off
And then the whole right side of the robot died completely, so got a few things to fix yet.......
