if we got a large enough place to host it in or were just careful with what bots came (ie, no minster flippers) it could even be done in our garden

It sounds like RFRC

it looks a bit dangerous to do this with the heavyweights (what with all the c02 and stuff) and feathers are quite powerful nowadays, so perhaps either small amounts of featherweights or beetleweights/ants? or something like that, it kind of reminds me of a social meeting (which isnt bad i suppose) either way its not going to be a full on competition (take of that what you will).

at the last RFRC me, Matt Hunt and a few others had some fun with feathers in the (now MY) school basketball court, basically it resulted in several broken bins, large tyre tracks, and some scared cats (yep i got in trouble for that one...) it was fun but even then i could see dangers.

basically, BBQ's and demos are good, but perhaps just do that at the live events?

i think get permission from a schhol to use heir basket ball courts, someone to bring some c02 and bring a BBq and we could have quite a nice little event going here could we?

i did get permission from the school, i just think that when i said robots they thought RC cars rather that full pressure c02 flippers

when i joined the school the caretaker was like its YOU!

anyway, all randomness aside, i think that a small social event like this would be great, its kind of what rfrc was designed to be, and everybody loved that...right? :twisted:

my school has a very flat car park, and my old secondary school has a few good areas they would be good, i can ak both and see if either say yes and take it from there

**mattsdragons** · 7th May 2011, 20:12
