Re: BotFest 4 (25th April 2020)
I would honestly say that although it could be argued that its a sport, I don't think there's really an argument that it's a team sport as it's normally 1 v 1. My Badminton club is also still waiting for clarification on what team is though, but at least we're 2 v 2.

Re: AWS 61 - Wolverton, Milton Keynes - 15th March 2020
Another thank you to everyone who organised the event, I had a great time as well. The first fight Up the Antie has won since RoboShowdown in August, and Push Comes to Shove maintained it's record of having 3 wins and 2 losses at every event it's ever gone to. Vertigo was a bit of a flop, but is bei...

I think you're pretty much always OK to find a second driver on the day, there's bound to be people available. It's just usually better to find someone in advance just in case.

Re: What is a team?
If you want 2 different drivers, you can just enter as 2 different teams. You can also have the same robot in multiple teams, but not in the same competition. It's mainly to reduce numbers so that there is essentially a limit of 4 robots per person.

Re: What is a team?
Also (apart from clusters) each team has to have a separate driver

Re: Good speed for antweights?
Most antweights use approx 500rpm motors (or faster), so it would probably be a little bit slow (but not massively).
50:1 or 30:1 ration N20s are the usual motors people use.

Re: Basic Flipper Hinge Question
They're each about 6 grams. I only used one, as they are relatively big (about 3cm long).

Re: Basic Flipper Hinge Question
For my first antweight I used a ready made plastic hinge: https://www.homecrafts.co.uk/mini-hinge-pack-of-10?gclid=CjwKCAjw67XpBRBqEiwA5RCocezAlQa5iv1mo19mMftZrmJpKAl_tVJunv_QQBdyLV3au55P7duc_BoCUQAQAvD_BwE Definitely not a perfect solution, but it works as a lower tech answer - and it looks good co...
