I now finally have antid..... Etc up and running with a grabber type weapon, I also have a flipper that I could easily change onto the place of the grabber, is this allowed
Say I'm doing okay but it needs abit of adjustment could I swap the weapon?
I don't mean in the middle of a battle I mean like in the tournament?
Probably completely against the rules but worth asking :)

Yep, that is completely within the rules, been done a few times before. All that it means is that you'll weigh in with whichever set up is the heaviest in place. This doesn't mean you have to use the heaviest set up, you could swap around before every match if you really wanted to. :D

My new ant for the AWS:
Weight: 152g atm but I can still cut down the rather huge m5 bolts holding the front on and shorten some wires
Armour: 2mm welded ABS main shell, 2mm shower pump metal (aluminium I think) on the front + an impenetrable duct tape cover for the hole in the lid
Drive: 50:1 hp motors and 32mm wheels
Battery: 3s 180mah lipo

Needs a name and some decoration though...
Team Imperial - What is that, metric?

I'd call it....Accident Blackspot. That, or something silly like I Don't Think We're Insured for This.

due to an unforeseen impact related incident (I hammered the motor too hard into its slot) Badgerbot will not be at AWS35, instead I've revived a golden oldie
