The entry limit is not set, however we are expecting a full event. As such, enter 4 but one will be put aside in case gaps need to be filled; we want everyone that has signed up to enter, so the people with 4 entries will be asked to sacrifice on as we did at AWS 58. In the spirit of diversity, we w...

Hi
Yes, me and Sarah (Tictoc, Out of Micro:trol) are hosting AWS60 in Headington, date is likely November 30th so we can keep the 20 year anniversary date in the right year (we missed one in 2017 I think)

Sorry to hear that Stuart, hope he makes a speedy recovery .
Next AWS is Sheffield in September, the Antweight open is October.

For Baby Hell I use a fingertech tinyESC. Expensive, yes, but at 3g it’s best for weight and will handle 2 HP motors easy (I use them to drive a beetle with no issue). Control wise, I have a spring-centred Double pole, double throw switch attached to the rudder control. Basically, if you take the le...

There’s a lot of rules we want to change, the first lot is really a vote on “do we change it”, the wording for some rules will be voted on later. The first lot were the ones the committee voted in unanimously, but we want it to be a democratic vote, hence it’s open to you guys. We will get wordings ...
