The museum is open 10am until 5pm, so we ask roboteers to be there before 10am. I've signed up Chroma but im going to be limited on my availability as i'll be running P2Ds ect, so its up to you if you want to put it in a team, im happy to do just whiteboards at some point, don't mind either way (dunno if it works yet, its not fought for 7-8 years!).

well under, think its 137g atm, but the new battery is lighter, and the 2.4ghz RX is lighter, so probably another 15g to come off.

Thats the one, thats the one I used to use but the gears stripped because of the way I had the flipper mounted. Thats also probably the cheapest one I've seen :P

I'm not sure there is one. Message Dave Lawrie if you can, he is quite proficient with his use of SD200's :P
