The "Robot Wars" Effect

[Westie1]

I wish I had kids so I had an acceptable excuse lol

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

Thanks Occashokka. Much appreciated.

It started out for them was going to rip down a couple of rc cars so they could battle and the more I read and researched it's become addictive I've got two more ants planned a pneumatic and a spinner. my sons two and every time the post comes he shouts robot ha

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

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.

Same, I've been watching an hour or so of one every night once my partner falls asleep

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

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

Yes, robot wars has brought me back too. Can't wait to get back into it!
