Don't worry i've been ignoring my kids as best i can. So i can duck into the garage to drill holes in bodywork and remove unnecessary components from circuit boards to get to 150g.
Could anyone let me know/ point me in the right direction of when the next AWS will be?

The next AWS will be October November time, as there are three a year and the last was very late, as to where, who knows until we can find someone to organise with a venue. The whole process of organising and signing up will be in the events section of the forum

I hope to make it if it isn't too far away :D

Quick question: is there a list of AWS matches anywhere? One thing I've found when watching the Youtube videos is that I think 'wow - that robot is cool!' but its name isn't mentioned so I can't look it up online or do any research on it.

Another keen newcomer here - as you can see by my join date, I've been lurking on and off for a while, but the revival of Robot Wars has definitely made me want to start posting :D

Cool seeing other people in the same boat, I'll be following all your builds and hopefully will start my own some day.
