Thanks Dave, I tried to make this one look a bit more like IA6 thats why it looks bigger than Ant Awe 5. Since the AWS is no longer the day before maidstone, I'll try to convince Dad to take me. I'll also make a set of HDPE armour -I have built AA6 differently to AA5 so that I can change the alumini...

Never did come up with a name for that feather, it was a mini version of Iron Awe but it was rubbish, I have probably got a photo of it somewhere before it had a fight with Heatwave.

Sign ups are now open here http://www.robotslive.co.uk/signup1.htm

I have signed up with the heavyweight, 3 feathers (although we might have 2 more working again by then) and 2 ants. So it should be a busy event.

So here is the newer one: Name: Ignite 2 Weight: should be 145g Length:9cm Width: 10cm Height: 4.5cm Weapon: 100psi P...

I would love to come to this AWS but I know that I personally would not be able to attend if it is held the day before a RR event (there is usually enough work to do before hand getting the heavy and feathers running). Although seeing as it is looking like the event will be held somewhere in the sou...

Well I decided to go ahead and buy an Option A controller and I must say that it is a great little controller and has been running in my new ant today with no problems to report. It's also a lot lighter & smaller than the sabretooth and barello that I have used before which has let me make the r...

I will definately be going to this one, I really enjoyed it last year. I should have 3 ants to bring (Ant Awe 5, Ant Awe 6 and Frostbite) so it will be nice to have a proper competition to enter,
