Good event, seems to have been a good location and have generated a reasonable amount of interest. We'll have to see whether or not any of that is to materialise.
Thanks to Gary and everybody for organising the weekend.

Certainly, I spent probably half as much time at the stand as some and was knackered, I can't imagine how tiring it was doing all three days on top of organising it all. A big thankyou from me. :)

Yes a great event and the visitors seemed to enjoy it.
A couple of people asked me for a link to the ebay cheaper motor gearboxes.

Variant was almost uncontollable with the spinner running on 12.6V so that has been reduced back down to 8.4V.

Such a good event. Will have to come down at the weekend next time, when there are more people.
But i got to run my new antweight, TiNY, which was mostly successful.

Josh and razerdave, we need to have our parallelogram battle to see which of ours is best! (probably not me)

Nice video! Good to see TiNY in action. I really like it! It's cool, and has a different feel. Despite being similar components-wise to a lot of other ants, it still has an individual character.
