Re: Ant Freeze 6 - 2/2/19 - * Updated * Details & Signup

So if it does snow it's looking like I'm coming on the train, yikes early start but there's one that gets there about half 9 so should be ok.

Thickness it's a mix. Baseplate/chassis is 1mm folded up to make a tray. The side panels and front panel that mou...

I feel like if it's recognisably the same robot, the back up chassis is identical to the broken one, then I would have no problem my opponent having more than one with them. Making a full switch to a new chassis in the pits between matches, particularly to...

Re: Team Shakey Build Diary

Ghost writer made me laugh when I saw you posted it on reddit and it still makes me smile. I've seen people posting post event pictures featuring his autographs too. Hey Shakey, the acetate strips you use for your wedges, are you just cutting a4 pieces down yourself or did you find somewhere to buy ...

There will probably be half a dozen or more through the year scattered around the country. Sounds like you got a good background for it with RC stuff and can jump righ...
