Hobbyweights anyone?

So, have there been any competition in 6kg class in Britain? And what´s your plan for next years Euro champs?

Oh, and I have started to build new 6kg flipper bot. Picture is in the profile. Just simple wedge with two 900rpm drills, 3 Colsons and compressor driven pneumatics. Uses 38x85mm ram made by builder of Purse, about 900l/min solenoid valve and 12mm tubing. Still about one kilogram underweight and flipper arm will be only about 500 grams according to Solidworks.

(That 4WD bot I wrote earlier wasn´t good and I never competed with it.. 3/8 chain was just too overkill and made drive very stiff. :P )
