it's great that so many people have signed up with so many robots. will that drum spinner in your picture be joining us at the event? we're at 26 competitor robots now? hopefully a few more will sign up in the remaining week before the event.

Looking forward to this one. I'm swapping Inertia 8 for mANTa now as I can't get it to work properly.

Inertia 5 and Momentum are running nicely though and as long as Titanic doesn't turn up they should survive :P

Hi Hogi.
I am really looking forward to meeting some new people and some new robots. I am hoping that a smaller event will give me time to breathe between fights, and to quiz Peter about DIY 3D printing!!!! :wink:
I will bring Raoul along, but he needs some work to get him going at the moment. I am bringing 3 non spinners to play with so that I can have a go on the raceway arena, which I have never had a go on before. :)
Cheers, Jim. :)

I'm bringing along a slight beaten up version of stanley to compete, I was going to bring a flipper too but the servo has gone AWOL D:

I really need the guy in charge of the 3D printer at uni to get back from his holiday. :P
