Just for those that dont read the live events thread.

Typhoon 2 has now been retired after the robogames in san francisco

The robot itself wont be up for sale but we may sell some of our spares so watch the for sale section

no, we may keep fighting the cadet however it has become too much work to keep the heavyweight going and as there arent any events that can safely contain it, we have decided to retire typhoon 2 on a high after san francisco.

Its final location is currently undecided but there are perhaps plans for it to become an exhibit in a museum.

lol, we are keeping all the mags, going to do something interesting with them

We may have a few 1hp iskra motors to sell though along with some other spares however as I said, these will be available in the for sale section when we get around to it

David personnally i would love to come back but it is a team decision and after nearly 5 years our combat side has come to an end.

We are now focussing on non combat featherweights for football and assault course type competitions.

O and im happy with the medal, its got our robots name scrolling across it
