It?s the IBF Ant Controller v.1.3.

One of our Roboteers is building his own Controller and he also sells them privat, like Peter Waller does here.

The Problem: It?s just in German

Thats Ok, my Google tool bar translates it (for the most part). Very interesting looking controller.

I hope to be able to see it in person someday, we have a few dutch roboteers come over here and the occasional swedish builder but we don't have any german builders come over. I hope we can get yourself, Kai, Joacim (sweden) and Andrea (Italy) to come here for an AWS, make it a true world series

That thing can drive virtually any way up. Nice.

I could represent Jamaica and/or Ireland at an AWS if you wantmore nationalities

That would still be a European league though

AWS (Antweight World Series) started off as a joke because all the competitiors in the first AWS came from the south-east of England. But if the Americans can have a "World Series" for baseball, then why not for Ants?

Anyway, since then we have had competitiors from Ireland, Sweden and the Netherlands. We have even held the AWS in Ireland and the Netherlands. However, with the vast majority of Antweight builders living in England, the AWS is usually held in England.

[Edit: just remembered we have had Wales represented in the past too! ]

That settles it then, for any AWS I turn up to I'm Jamaican

What I wouldn't give for one of our autralian mates (like Aaron) to come over here and make it a true world series (IE: builders from off the continent). One day we'll get it organised
