Re: BotFest 4 (25th April 2020)
Apologies, I noticed last night that the registration to the originally planned event was still open on AntLog, which I have now force closed. If you have signed up for BotFest 4 via AntLog, you will need to register again through the Google form.

Re: BotFest 4 (25th April 2020)
There was a discussion about this on the FRA forum. One alternative might be to simply rebind the controller to one another roboteer might have if that works for you? It'd mean they'd use their own controller.

Re: BotFest 4 (25th April 2020)
I've only just heard back from the Church myself regarding the price to hire the place for the afternoon. They are OK with it though it will be on the 26th of September. More details to follow shortly.

Re: BotFest 4 (25th April 2020)

Re: What transmitters are the favourite now?
Having not used a FS-i6, I couldn't comment. I find the Orange pretty easy to use though, took me about 10 mins to figure out where most of the functions where that I needed (largely multi-model support and curves).
